At Capgemini Engineering, the world leader in engineering services, we bring together a global team of engineers, scientists, and architects to help the world’s most innovative companies unleash their potential. 

From autonomous cars to life-saving robots, our digital and software technology experts think outside the box as they provide unique R&D and engineering services across all industries. Join us for a career full of opportunities. Where you can make a difference. Where no two days are the same.

Data & AI (Hybrid Intelligence) is a team within Capgemini Engineering that uses data science, applied mathematics and software engineering to solve complex problems for clients.

We are always looking for the best science, mathematics and engineering graduates and postgraduates to join us. We offer exciting opportunities to use a range of skills to create, develop and deliver solutions to some of the most challenging problems in the world.

Your Career

You will use your domain knowledge and technical skills to truly understand and solve the challenges faced by our clients, who are all world leading companies in science and technology. Your activities will vary from project to project, but will broadly involve data science and software engineering, from analysing and interpreting client data to developing bespoke software solutions in a range of programming languages. Projects themselves are varied, from developing smarter drug trials to controlling the orbit and attitude of satellites.

You will need to build excellent relationships to collaborate with colleagues and enthusiastically engage with clients. We will provide a dedicated support network around you to ensure the best start to your career. Project team sizes are typically small and durations are relatively short, so you will make a big impact and quickly gain experience across different domains, allowing you to apply innovative thinking and transferable skills to solve fresh challenges.

Your Future

The key to our success is the quality of our staff. We value your academic background as much as technical skills, so we do not expect you to be a software expert. If you have a good grounding in Python and a keen interest to learn, we will invest in you to develop professional skills in new technologies and languages. We will provide extensive training throughout your career and many courses often lead to recognised qualifications.

Working on our projects is hugely rewarding and you will never stop learning and developing. With support from your manager, you will shape your own career, and we will help you develop the skills you need to achieve your ambitions. Career paths can be focused on technology, domain expertise or people management, or a combination of these.
