Your Role

You will be joining one of the world's most recognised names in cybersecurity, with over 6,000 cyber security consultants across the Capgemini Group and more than 30 years of proven expertise spanning IT, Embedded, Industrial, and Telecom environments.

  • Conducting risk assessments and threat modelling across complex Telecom environments, providing expert technical guidance to mitigate cyber security risks, vulnerabilities and incidents
  • Assessing, recommending and validating security technologies — including Firewalls, IDS/IPS, PKI, HSM, PAM, EDR, SIEM and SOAR solutions — against defined security requirements
  • Creating and maintaining high-quality security architecture documentation including HLDs, LLDs, architecture diagrams, guidelines and training materials, while leading collaboration with solution architects and integration teams to ensure secure deployments
  • Engaging directly with customers and senior executives during workshops and presentations, acting as a trusted technical authority on Telecom cybersecurity matters

Your Profile

 

  • A strong background in cybersecurity with a minimum of 12 years of experience, including at least 5 years focused on Telecom environments covering 4G/5G security, RAN infrastructures, transport networks, and cloud/virtualisation platforms
  • Deep technical knowledge of security standards and compliance frameworks including GSMA, ENISA, TS33.x, ETSI and NIST, alongside hands-on experience with security solutions such as PKI, HSM, PAM, SIEM, EDR and secure architecture patterns
  • Relevant professional certifications such as TOGAF, ISSAP, CISSP or CCSP (or equivalent), combined with a Master's degree in Computer Science, Information Security, or Telecommunications
  • Excellent communication and presentation skills in English, with the ability to engage confidently with both technical teams and executive-level stakeholders; proficiency in French is a strong advantage, along with flexibility for international travel to customer locations
