- Design integrations between observability, automation platforms, and ITSM tools (e.g. ServiceNow) for automated workflows
- Translate client requirements into scalable, secure, costeffective technical solutions, providing governance and design assurance
- Collaborate across teams and support presales activities, including solution design, client workshops, and modern platform adoption
You can bring your whole self to work. At Capgemini building an inclusive future is part of everyday life and will be part of your working reality. We have built a representative and welcoming environment, for everyone.

- Solid experience designing and governing infrastructure automation (e.g. Ansible) aligned to DevOps practices
- Skilled in integrating infrastructure and observability with ITSM platforms (e.g. ServiceNow, CMDB, incident/change workflows)
