I am currently working as the Accreditation Team Leader on the Galileo Second Generation program for Thales and expatriated on ESA premises. Thus, I am already used to living in the Netherlands for 3.5 years now, fully adapted to the life there, and as well used to working on cybersecurity activities as it has been 7 years working for Thales in this domain (and I am as well graduated from my engineer school with a cybersecurity specialization diploma). 

As the accreditation team leader, I have knowledge of these different activities I was doing / organizing for the rest of my team:

• Risk Analysis, I am knowledgeable of norms such as ISO 27005, and their implementation such as EBIOS 2010 & EBIOS RM (French methodology) or Magerit (Spanish methodology);
• Common criterias as I was responsible to review several Security Targets;
• Operational requirements;
• Design aspects and documentations, as I was using them to work on Risk Analysis;
• Definition of Security profiles;
• Implementation of an accreditation process compatible with SAFe and based on DevSecOps practices;
• Definition of responsibilities for accreditation processes;
• Definition of site accreditation, authorization to launch for satellites, etc.;
• Etc.

Additionally, I am used to multi-cultural environment as I was located on client site at Noordwijk, ESTEC. 

After having worked so long for Thales and the different accreditation activities, I would like to experience a new environment that would also provide me opportunities to evolve and learn, while I could also provide my own experience as an cybersecurity and accreditation engineer. My desire is also to stay in the Netherlands as my partner is Dutch herself, and I love the country. 

7 years of experience with Thales, half in France, the other in expatriation on client site in the Netherlands. I am particularly experienced with Risk assessment activities, and accreditation in general. 

I was a student at Telecom Sudparis, a French engineer school, equivalent to Master level of studies internationally. I was studying there telecommunication activities, with a specialization in cybersecurity.
