Welcome to Jean-Marc Edder’s personal website

Who I am

A Telecom Engineer, living near Fribourg, Switzerland, I’m married and father of a teen daughter.

Active in networks and cyber security for over 25 years. Multilingual, I have worked as project manager, security manager, consultant, then as a network security engineer at several integrators, before moving to the vendor side as a pre-sales engineer at Blue Coat, Symantec, ColorTokens and Check Point Software.

During these years I could develop my skills in planning, realization and operation of network architectures, integration and configuration of cyber security solutions, consulting and technical support, presentation, project management and team management.

Currently working as a Security Engineer at ITech Consult, I am looking for a new challenge, if possible in Western Switzerland (Romandie) in cyber security, cutting-edge technologies, applied research, digital signage or in the world of sport. I stay of course open to any proposal in other fields where I can bring my knowledge and experience.

On the private side

I like sport, especially judo (5th dan, instructor, co-responsible of judo veterans commission at the swiss judo federation, active competitor with veterans, and former continental referee). I also like tennis, fitness (workout), skiing, and occasionnally other sports.

I am very interested in healthy nutrition and food supplements, especially for athletes, as well as in renewable energies and new technologies. But I’m also very concerned about global warming and the lack of respect of some people for our environment.
