Summary
David Lefever is a pragmatic senior dev/systems engineer with 11 years of experience who blends hands‑on development (Python, JavaScript, Java, Bash) with deep operational expertise in Linux, Kubernetes, CI/CD and observability. He has driven DevOps and full‑stack initiatives across banking and consulting environments (BNP Paribas Fortis, Wemanity, Swift), building repeatable pipelines, images and monitoring stacks using tools like Jenkins, GitLab, Docker, Prometheus, ELK, Ansible and Terraform. Known for clean code and maintainability, he regularly bridges the gap between developers and operators to ship reliable, production-grade systems. Based in Belgium, he pairs a developer’s curiosity with a systems mindset and a taste for pragmatic automation, often stepping into deployment and coaching roles to accelerate team delivery. An underappreciated strength is his consistent focus on observability and testing as first-class citizens, which keeps complex distributed systems understandable and resilient.
