Functional Analyst
Our client is launching a major modernization of its biometric identification capabilities and needs a Functional Analyst to bridge operational needs with technical delivery. You will help shape secure identity management processes and ensure the new platform meets judicial and operational requirements.
CONTEXT
Our client, a major player in its sector, is responsible for sensitive judicial and identity-related missions where accuracy, security, and legal compliance are paramount. Its current biometric identification capabilities are approaching their limits, creating challenges for identity management, fingerprint matching, and facial recognition. A strategic program has been launched to replace the legacy system with a modern, scalable, and privacy-conscious platform. The Functional Analyst will join this transformation at a pivotal moment, translating complex operational needs into precise functional designs and ensuring that technology genuinely serves justice, security, and public trust.
