Hi, my name is Chedy Missaoui (pronounced Shedy and sometimes written Chedi), I am from Béja, Tunisia.

I am a software and cloud practitioner with over a decade of hands-on experience in Azure Cloud architecture, DevOps transformation, and, more recently, AI engineering. My work centers on closing the gap between platform capabilities and the teams that need to use them effectively.

I currently work as a Technical Account Manager at Tessan Group, a Tunis-based company where I help software development teams adopt Azure PaaS services, establish sustainable DevOps practices, and reason clearly about infrastructure tradeoffs.

Over the years, my focus has shifted progressively toward Agentic AI technology. I work with Azure Microsoft Foundry and related tooling to build systems that are genuinely useful in production rather than only impressive in demos. I believe agentic workflows are already a concrete productivity lever for organizations willing to approach them with engineering discipline.

Early on, I found that deep technical understanding, a solid grasp of operational best practices, and a pragmatic attitude toward complexity consistently yield better outcomes than chasing abstractions or tooling trends.

After years of working across teams of varying sizes and maturity levels, I also learned that technical capability alone rarely drives lasting impact. People reasoning together, sharing context, and collaborating across boundaries is what actually moves things forward.

Recognition
