“In a world where technology often races ahead of meaning, Capgemini stood out as a company that balances innovation with intention.”

I began my career in IT as a trainee in 2021, driven by a deep curiosity about how technology shapes the way organizations operate and evolve. That early exposure laid the groundwork for my transition into the realm of enterprise applications, where I developed a strong foundation in solution design and implementation. Over time, my desire to create broader impact led me into consulting. It is a space where I could engage more strategically with clients and contribute to their digital transformation journeys. My experience spans multiple industries, with roles that demand both technical depth and business insight. Today, as an Applications Consultant, I thrive at the intersection of technology and strategy, helping organizations unlock value through tailored, scalable solutions. I’m passionate about continuous learning, cross-functional collaboration, and shaping solutions that are not only technically sound but also human-centric.

What made you decide to apply to and join Capgemini?

I was drawn to Capgemini not merely as a workplace but as a platform for purposeful transformation. In a world where technology often races ahead of meaning, Capgemini stood out as a company that balances innovation with intention. I saw in it a rare blend of intellectual rigor, ethical grounding, and a global mindset. It is an ecosystem where I could not only grow but also contribute meaningfully. Joining Capgemini was less a career move and more a conscious alignment with a vision of technology that uplifts, includes, and empowers.

What makes you passionate about your work?

My passion lies in the quiet elegance of solving complex problems with clarity and empathy. Every line of code, every architectural decision, and every client conversation is an opportunity to create something that didn’t exist before—something that makes someone’s day easier, smarter, or more connected. I’m energized by the idea that behind every technical solution is a human story, and I get to be part of shaping that narrative with precision and purpose.

How are you working towards the future you want?

I believe the future isn’t something we wait for; it is something we architect, one decision at a time. I’m investing in a future where I can lead with both technical fluency and strategic foresight. This means staying curious, embracing ambiguity, and seeking out challenges that stretch my thinking. I actively pursue interdisciplinary learning, mentor emerging talent, and engage in projects that push the boundaries of what’s possible. My goal is to evolve not just as a consultant but as a catalyst for sustainable, human-centered innovation.

How do you notice Capgemini’s efforts to create an inclusive environment?

Inclusion at Capgemini is not a checkbox; it is a culture of intentional listening. I’ve experienced it in the way diverse voices are invited into the room, not just heard but genuinely considered. It is evident in the psychological safety that allows people to speak up, challenge norms, and bring their full selves to work. From inclusive leadership training to grassroots communities of belonging, Capgemini doesn’t just talk about inclusion. It builds it into the architecture of everyday work.

What advice would you give to someone joining Capgemini?

Come with curiosity, stay with courage. Capgemini is a place where your questions are as valuable as your answers. Don’t be afraid to explore beyond your comfort zone. This is a company that rewards initiative and celebrates growth. Build relationships, not just networks. And most importantly, remember that your uniqueness is your superpower. The more authentically you show up, the more impact you’ll create.
