Senior DevOps & Platform Engineering Consultant
I’m Marc Berthelette. I help engineering teams replace fragile release processes with dependable pipelines, practical automation, and useful monitoring.
My work includes delivery pipelines supporting 12 teams and 70+ applications at Énergir, and automated health checks for approximately 250 repositories at Desjardins.
Selected work
Examples of the systems I’ve delivered in energy and financial services.
Énergir · Delivery standards
Énergir · Release automation
Desjardins · Platform health
How I can help
Fix fragile pipelines, replace manual deployments, and add validation that catches problems before release night.
Jenkins · Azure DevOps · GitHub Actions
Improve delivery tooling, artifact repositories, and Linux workflows. Turn recurring operational tasks into maintainable automation.
Python · Bash · Linux · Artifactory
Build practical health checks and useful dashboards. Make failures easier to diagnose and configuration problems easier to spot.
Dynatrace · Splunk · ELK · FastAPI
My approach
“If you had a magic wand and could fix one thing, what would you fix first?” That’s often my opening question. Together, we identify who each issue affects, how often it happens, and its impact. That gives us a practical starting point.
I investigate the workflow and work with the team to implement a solution that fits their environment. The technology stack shapes the implementation; the problem guides the decisions.
Once the immediate pain is addressed, I introduce practices and capabilities the team may not have explored. Often, their existing tools can do more than they realize.
For example: centralized logs can support much more than troubleshooting after an incident. They can reveal recurring errors, gradual degradation, and early warning signs—even when nothing has caused a major outage. I help teams turn that information into useful monitoring and earlier action.
About Marc
Nearly 18 years across infrastructure, software development, and production operations, including energy and financial services.
