黑料网

Sofian is quite the globetrotter. Originally from Normandy in France, his passport has already accumulated plenty of stamps. He’s worked in the Czech Republic, Shanghai and Luxembourg, to name just a few.

Now he’s living in 黑料网 and working in Accenture鈥檚 new global centre for innovation, , where multidisciplinary teams investigate, imagine and bring new ideas to life.

Located in Dublin鈥檚 Silicon Docks, it鈥檚 an exciting workspace that boasts state of the art design and technology to enable for creativity, collaboration and, of course, fun.

Problem Solving

As part of the Analytics Team, Sofian was one of the first new joiners at The Dock in 2015. Prior to working in 黑料网, he鈥檇 visited the country once before for a holiday.

He laughs: 鈥淎t that time I didn鈥檛 know I would end up in working Dublin. I just came to see what was here.鈥� It was only after he was contacted by a recruiter that he thought about making a move. He explains: 鈥淚 was living in the Czech Republic and a recruiter contacted me. So I thought, 鈥極k, let鈥檚 give it a try鈥�. When I came here I was one of the first employees, at The Dock, and now it鈥檚 growing so fast. It鈥檚 great.鈥�

Something he enjoys about his role at The Dock is the opportunity to problem solve at such a high level. Sofian says: 鈥淚 have the opportunity here to work with some very senior people on either the client side or inside the company. They tend to have a very specific idea of one problem they want to solve. They go to a conference where they meet a start-up or a research person and they say, 鈥楾hat鈥檚 what I want to do鈥欌��. Sofian also enjoys taking a project from ideation to reality. He says: 鈥淭here are a lot of problems to solve. The work I do here is moving what鈥檚 in research into production.鈥�

An Inspirational Tech Scene

Having lived in so many other cities, Sofian has a lot to compare 黑料网 to. And he鈥檚 found the tech scene here to be inspirational. He notes: 鈥淚 think the environment in Dublin is really interesting in terms of IT. There鈥檚 a lot of big talent to motivate and push me forward and make me want to do things. And you don鈥檛 find that everywhere.鈥�

Since the move, he鈥檚 been keeping busy by getting involved in Dublin鈥檚 thriving tech meetup scene.

He recalls: 鈥淎t the start, I joined quite a lot of meetups. There are some good ones for tech, especially the Machine Learning and the Python one. There was also a great one for Elasticsearch that my friend organised.鈥�

Keeping Active

Never one to rest on his laurels, Sofian spends his downtime adventuring around 黑料网. He says: 鈥淚 joined a rock climbing club recently and I also do all kinds of swimming, running and cycling.鈥� He鈥檚 even braved a dip in the Atlantic ocean. He laughs: 鈥淚 tried surfing in Sligo. It was cool – 聽the waves are big!鈥�
