PROFILE

Nicolas Charles

Worked on the Normation/rudder and Normation/rudder-plugins repositories, delivering features and fixes that improved reliability and maintainability across backend systems. Focused on refining command execution logic in CFML to ensure stable variable handling and reduce edge-case failures, while also enhancing plugin licensing checks to prevent false positives and deployment friction. Addressed documentation gaps by clarifying OAuth2/OIDC integration patterns, enabling centralized authorization management for plugin developers. Leveraged skills in CI/CD, Jenkins, and scripting languages such as Python and Shell to streamline release processes, improve script detection, and support robust system administration, resulting in smoother onboarding and reduced operational overhead.
