Available to hire
I’m Rabii Jebabli, a technical leader and embedded/DevOps professional with over 20 years of experience delivering end-to-end products—from architecture and development to industrialization, cloud integration, and application management. I’m especially focused on building structured R&D processes and teams, setting up CI/CD and quality standards, and guiding multidisciplinary delivery to meet schedule and reliability goals.
I’ve led diverse engineering programs across embedded Linux, Yocto, IoT gateways, kernel/driver work, and large-scale cloud/containers on Kubernetes and AWS. I enjoy turning complex system requirements into robust, production-ready solutions, with a hands-on approach that spans hardware integration, networking (IPv4/IPv6), automation/monitoring, and secure operations (OT/IT hardening).
