HIGHLIGHTS OF THE JOB

Hello everyone, my name is Sébastien, I am a Distinguished Engineer on data and artificial intelligence at Societe Generale since 2021, which I joined after spending about ten years in a large tech company to set myself a new challenge.

If I had to summarize in one sentence: my job is to guide strategic decisions in terms of technology and innovation. Of course, on a daily basis, it's a little more diverse and no two days are the same. Nevertheless, there are still three main pillars.

Firstly, it means defining and implementing the technical strategy of the Group's data and AI platforms, whether in terms of technologies, products, innovation and construction methods.

Secondly, it's managing projects at the cutting edge of innovation, such as, for example, the implementation of the Societe Generale Group's generative AI platform.

And thirdly, I participate in the acculturation of business lines to explain how the data and AI can improve their daily lives.

In my opinion, there are two key skills. The first is curiosity, because we are in a world where technology is fast-moving and very innovative.

The second is daring, because you also have to be able of thinking outside the box to create conditions for change and apply innovation on a daily basis.

Since a few years now, I have been coaching and mentoring of young technical talent, whether they are developers or data scientists.

I'm always very proud when I see them develop and fulfill their potential within the Group.

My team is international, based mainly in France and India.

In this context, it's extremely important to me to have an atmosphere where everyone feels free to express their opinions and ideas.

I also attach great importance to autonomy and initiative, because we are working in a field where innovation is key and so we have to give everyone the opportunity to be independent and to take his own initiatives.

When I arrived in the Group, what surprised me the most, it was both the appetite for technological innovation, while operating in a highly regulated sector so I was very pleasantly surprised to see how the Group managed to resolve this apparent contradiction to create innovations that are both responsible, but which also comply with the regulations in force.
