Hey, Moreno!
\nWhat do you study, and what were you looking for in an internship\/a student job?<\/h2>\n

\"MorenoHello!<\/p>\n

I\u2019m studying applied computer science<\/strong> at HOGENT, the largest University of Applied Sciences and Arts.<\/p>\n

Because I\u2019m very interested in ICT infrastructure<\/strong> in general, and automation, I was looking for a company where I could learn<\/strong> a lot, fast, have actual end responsibilities<\/strong> and short feedback loops<\/strong> to build and implement quickly. Excentis checked all the boxes!<\/p>\n

Sound great! What did you do here at Excentis?<\/h2>\n

I mainly worked on 2 projects: The first had as goal to automate and modernise the endpoint management infrastructure<\/strong> for Excentis. The second project I worked on was research project to determine the best possible way to manage and secure ICT infrastructure<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Next to that, some fun stuff like an internship fair<\/strong>, assisting with research for different solutions, implementation, bug fixes, and much more.<\/p>\n

1. Automating and modernising the endpoint management infrastructure for Excentis<\/h3>\n

We researched and compared a number of tools for managing and maintaining endpoints. Eventually, we selected one specific MDM solution (mobile device management) in combination with Windows Defender.<\/p>\n

By using the new winget package manager in Windows, we were able to automate this process for most of our applications.<\/p>\n

2. A research project to determine the best possible way to manage and secure ICT infrastructure.<\/h3>\n

From the research for managing endpoints, we also looked in to how we could apply our learnings to managing the server and network infrastructure. Basically – what we used to execute manually we now automated.<\/p>\n

And several extra, fun things like helping to look for a myriad of solutions, implementations, bug fixing, to even talk at an internship fair to provide a first-person view to potential interns or student jobbers!<\/p>\n

And? How did it go?<\/h2>\n

\"\"It went great and had a blast working here! Next to technical knowledge<\/strong> and real-world implementations<\/strong>, I also learned a lot about working in a mixed environment<\/strong> and how to properly manage ICT projects<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Would you recommend an internship\/student job here?<\/h2>\n

Definitely, the team is small and formidable<\/strong> (so they can move quickly and deliberately), the expertise<\/strong> is impressive, and the playing field is worldwide<\/strong>. Not to mention the central location in downtown Ghent!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Since conducting this interview, we’re happy to announce Moreno has started working full-time at Excentis.<\/p>\n
