Last position:

Security Architect at Capgemini

I implemented a Zero-Trust architecture for robust, military-grade maritime container mini data centers based on VMware & Tanzu to support containerized GIS workloads for ground forces. The main focus was on securing communications, workload protection, and data access in contested electronic battle environments affected by jamming, interception, signal manipulation, and constantly changing operational conditions. I designed and architected use cases so that every element of workload, identity, and system could continue to operate independently and securely even in degraded or disrupted scenarios. In parallel, I defined the enterprise and solution security architecture with LeanIX, Bizzdesign, and HOPEX as enterprise architecture, repository, and governance platforms to maintain architecture inventory, relationships, traceability, target pictures, and security governance in complex environments. For the architectural designs, I used Sparx Enterprise Architect to describe formal architecture views, interfaces, trust boundaries, and system architecture in both IT and OT environments. IriusRisk was used for threat modeling of the solution to identify architecture-driven risks, derive security requirements, and detect countermeasures and design gaps directly from the solution models. Risk and compliance management was supported with Archer. Architecture decisions, control gaps, and operational risks were translated into controlled governance and auditable compliance measures. For documentation, collaboration, and visual design, I used Confluence to maintain Architecture Decision Records, Security Blueprints, and workflows. I used Lucidchart and draw.io to create design artifacts tailored to stakeholders. I also defined OT security concepts with support from electrical and mechanical engineers in the areas of oil, vehicle onboard systems, rail, power plants, pharma, gas turbines, and nuclear technology. I created the end-to-end OT security strategy, starting with global policy, developed into standards and procedures, and finally aligned with Bell-LaPadula, Purdue Model, SABSA, TOGAF ADM, CENELEC 50701, IEC 62443, and NIST standards. In addition, I worked with engineering team leads to identify critical KBP assets and place them under protective measures that segmented SCADA, PLC, and HMI assets. I drove collaboration between Security, IT, and OT teams to create standardized workflows and use cases for the OT security solution catalog, while integrating Defense-in-Depth and Zero-Trust principles into operational environments. A key part of my work was integrating multidisciplinary engineering, security, and operations stakeholders into a unified security blueprinting strategy and ensuring that architecture, threat modeling, governance, and documentation were technically strong and operationally practical.

About the technology

What Obsidian is

Obsidian is a note-taking and knowledge management app built around plain text Markdown files. It is used to create personal wikis, research archives, project notes, and internal knowledge bases. Strong experts know how to shape it into a system people can actually keep using.

Typical work

  • Design vault structures and note naming rules
  • Set up links, backlinks, tags, and daily notes
  • Build templates for meetings, research, and content
  • Configure plugins for search, tasks, charts, or sync
  • Migrate notes from Evernote, Notion, or raw Markdown

Skills that matter

Good Obsidian specialists understand Markdown, information architecture, and lightweight automation. They know when a simple note link is enough and when a more structured workflow is needed. Experience with Git, local file sync, and privacy-focused setups is often useful.

When companies hire help

Teams bring in freelance experts when note sprawl slows people down or when a shared knowledge system needs a clean start. This is common during research work, product documentation, onboarding, and executive note systems. In Germany, companies often want clear English setups, but local language workflows matter too.

What strong experts do

Strong professionals do more than install plugins. They define conventions, reduce friction, and make sure notes stay searchable over time.

  • Keep the setup simple and maintainable
  • Match the workflow to the team, not the tool
  • Document how people should capture and review notes
  • Avoid plugin-heavy setups that break easily

Where Obsidian fits

Obsidian.md is often weighed against Notion, Evernote, OneNote, and Roam Research. It stands out when a team wants local-first files, control over data, and flexible linking. For remote work across Germany, it can support distributed note sharing while still leaving each person in control of their own files.

Frequently asked questions

Everything clients usually want to know about Obsidian, in one place.

Obsidian is used for linked notes, project documentation, research libraries, meeting records, and internal knowledge bases. It works well when teams want a local-first system built on Markdown files that they can organize and search without locking their content into one place.

A strong Obsidian setup gives more control over files and structure than Notion, and more linking flexibility than Evernote. It is usually the better choice when privacy, portability, and long-term ownership of notes matter more than a polished shared workspace.

An effective Obsidian specialist should know Markdown, note architecture, templates, and plugin management. Useful adjacent skills include Git, documentation design, research workflows, and migration from other note systems such as Notion, Evernote, or OneNote.

For a simple personal vault, you may not need much help. For a team setup, a Obsidian expert can save time by defining folder structure, naming rules, templates, and review habits before the system becomes messy.

Yes, Obsidian can work well for remote teams in Germany if the workflow is clear and the sharing model is agreed upfront. Many teams use it for shared documentation drafts, research notes, and personal knowledge systems, while keeping sensitive content local.

Yes, Obsidian can support documentation when the content is mostly text, linked, and maintained by people who are comfortable with Markdown. It is a strong fit for internal guides, product research, and evolving reference material, especially when the team wants file ownership.

Look for a Obsidian professional who explains the structure clearly, not just the plugins they know. Good signs are clean vault design, simple templates, sensible automation, and a setup that other people can follow without constant help.

Ask how the Obsidian specialist will handle migration, naming rules, templates, sync, and long-term maintenance. Also check whether the setup is meant for one person or a team, because the right structure is very different in each case.
