Laurent Gabardos

Staff Software Engineer

I design and evolve software platforms, from architecture to deployment: APIs, containers, Kubernetes and CI/CD pipelines. Since 2008, in companies and as a freelancer.

Profile

I hold an engineering degree from the CNAM (Software Systems Architecture and Engineering). I started with Java and Android development before moving into architect and technical lead roles.

At Ivanti, I spent almost six years on the architecture and deployment of the Neurons for IIoT platform, working with the team and close to product decisions. Since March 2026, I am a freelance Tech Lead at Doxallia.
