Mounir Djema, senior Azure integration consultantComplex systems.Clear solutions.

I help companies connect the systems they depend on. For the past six years I have focused on Azure integration and .NET: I design the architecture, write the code, and stay close to production once it goes live.

Approach

Reliable by design.
Quiet in production.

Most of my work happens in regulated environments: financial services, payroll, telecom. When the output is someone's paycheque, you can't afford to lose a message or guess what went wrong. Every transaction is traceable, every failure shows up somewhere, and nothing depends on luck.

When a production integration breaks, my teams call me. Once it's fixed, I'm also the one who writes down what happened and how to avoid it next time.

REST APISFTP fileWebhookService BusFunctionsPayroll / ERPDead-letter + alertREST APISFTP fileWebhookService BusFunctionsPayroll / ERPDead-letter + alert
A typical setup: data comes in from very different sources, Service Bus keeps each step independent, Functions do the processing, and anything that fails is flagged instead of lost.
  1. 01

    Flows that recover

    Idempotent processing, retries with backoff, dead-letter queues that raise alerts, and a correlation ID that follows each transaction from start to finish.

  2. 02

    Security built in

    Managed identities, Key Vault and Entra ID. No secrets in code or configuration files, and every input is validated where it enters the system.

  3. 03

    Made to be run

    Dashboards, alerts on queue depth and delays, runbooks and onboarding guides are part of what I deliver, not an afterthought.

  4. 04

    AI as a tool

    I use Claude Code and GitHub Copilot every day. My rule is simple: I never ship code I couldn't defend in a code review.

Selected work

Built for real operational constraints.

A few projects I designed and delivered, and the thinking behind them.

Kairos, customer communication SaaS

A platform that helps independent auto shops and other appointment-based businesses stay in touch with their customers. It sends confirmations, reminders, vehicle-ready notices and review requests automatically, handles two-way SMS, and respects consent and anti-spam rules.

Telecon
Tens of thousandsof field employees

Enterprise payroll integration

Telecon builds fibre networks across Canada and the United States and grew through acquisitions, so each subsidiary had its own payroll and timesheet systems. I designed the Azure middleware that brings them together: REST APIs for modern platforms, file exchange for older ones, and Service Bus between each step so one slow system never holds up the rest.

Après des années dans la tech, une chose devient de plus en plus claire : savoir coder ne suffit plus. Les technologies changent. Les frameworks disparaissent. L’IA accélère tout. Mais certaines compétences prennent encore plus de valeur : → comprendre le vrai problème → savoir s’adapter → communiquer simplement → prendre de bonnes décisions → continuer à apprendre Notre métier évolue vite, et c’est justement ce qui le rend passionnant. Le meilleur investissement reste celui qu’on fait dans sa propre évolution.

OpenAI says it has found a solution to a decades-old advanced maths problem in a matter of hours using a new artificial intelligence (AI) model and thousands of AI bots. The ChatGPT-maker said that by focusing a group of roughly 10,000 AI agents, or AI bots that undertake tasks somewhat autonomously, it solved a notoriously difficult maths problem in just 88 hours. Such an effort would have cost roughly $10m, based on OpenAI's own pricing for output from its most advanced models.

Les erreurs de paie touchent 84 % des gestionnaires qui admettent en avoir déjà commis, et 81 % des salariés redoutent une telle inexactitude sur leur bulletin de salaire. Statistiques clés sur l'impact des erreurs de paie : Confiance et démission : 91 % des travailleurs québécois envisageraient de quitter leur poste en cas de problèmes de paie récurrents, et 56 % perdraient confiance en leur employeur. Près de 50 % des employés cherchent activement un nouvel emploi après seulement deux erreurs constatées. Coût financier : Selon Dayforce, les erreurs de paie représentent entre 2 % et 5 % du coût total annuel de la masse salariale en raison des correctifs, des heures administratives et des pénalités de conformité. Prévalence : 84 % des responsables de la paie reconnaissent commettre des erreurs de calcul de salaire, souvent causées par de mauvais suivis des heures, des congés non synchronisés ou des complexités réglementaires.

Une belle étape pour Kairos Garage et pour notre engagement entrepreneurial local Je suis très heureux d’annoncer le début d’un partenariat avec la Chambre de commerce et de l'industrie Haute-Yamaska. Kairos est une solution québécoise née d’une idée simple : utiliser la technologie pour aider les garages indépendants à gagner du temps, simplifier leur gestion quotidienne et offrir une meilleure expérience à leurs clients. Au-delà de la technologie, ce projet représente aussi une conviction profonde : l’innovation doit être accessible aux entreprises locales et répondre à des problèmes concrets vécus sur le terrain. Ce partenariat avec la Chambre représente une occasion de faire connaître Kairos, mais surtout de créer des liens avec les entrepreneurs, les organisations et les acteurs économiques de notre région. Merci à la Chambre de commerce et de l’industrie Haute-Yamaska pour sa confiance, son soutien et sa volonté de mettre en valeur les entreprises d’ici. Kairos continue de grandir, avec une ambition claire : devenir un véritable partenaire technologique pour les garages et autres acteurs indépendants, au Québec et ailleurs. Fier d’entreprendre ici. Fier de développer une technologie utile, pensée pour les gens d’ici.
