For the past year, I have been working as a Security Automation Engineer on TEF’s Security Team, where I oversee the SOAR (Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response) application. My responsibilities include managing, maintaining, and enhancing the SOAR platform, as well as optimizing and developing SOAR processes to improve incident response efficiency and effectiveness.

Prior to this role, I worked as a penetration tester, focusing on the security of web and mobile applications, as well as APIs.

My diverse roles and responsibilities have provided me with a deep understanding of both attacker and defender perspectives. These insights enable me to elevate security automation at TEF to the next level.

Production engineer from the USB with a master’s degree in Finance (IESA) and operations research (UCV), with 20 years of experience in the telecommunications sector, developing projects of digital transformation, automation, digitalisation and robotisation, quality control, planning and sizing of customer service channels.

Fond of plastic art, music, good movies and being good with myself.

Well, I have been working for the company for more than 25 years now, since one day in April, in my last year of university, I saw a poster advertising internships for companies and decided to sign up. And since then, I have been very happy until today.

For that reason alone, I could say that I have been with Telefónica all my life. The reality is that I have been linked to Telefónica all my life, since I was born. My maternal grandparents ran the switchboard in a small town in Segovia, Madrona, and I grew up between plugs and cable towers in my living room. In addition, both my father and mother have been employees of the company until their retirement. So, for me, talking about Telefónica is talking about my family and my second home.

Since 1992 my professional development as a management secretary has been in different national and multinational companies. I joined the Telefónica Group in 2010 at TIWS. In September 2016 I joined Telxius, specifically in the company Telxius Cable España (created in April of that year) providing support as Assistant to the Network/Operations and Marketing Departments.

I consider myself a facilitator and enriched by having been able to help in the training of colleagues and solve doubts regarding the most used systems such as travel management, settlements, in SAP environment or any other kind, and if I do not know the answer, I investigate. I love the atmosphere of ‘optimism’ and I do my best to encourage it, working happily… it’s doubly rewarding.

I am an expert responsible for ProFuturo evaluations. Enthusiastic about research, analysis and reflection on digital education and other remedies.

I work as a Cloud Comms Technologies Engineer for Comms Platforms & Datacenter at Telefonica Tech.

I have been with Telefónica for almost two years now. My assessment of this time in the company is that it has been a very positive and challenging experience.

My name is Juan José Rodríguez Lupiáñez. I am 50 years old, married and the father of a 16 year old girl. I am from a small village in Granada, in the Alpujarra.

I have a degree in computer engineering from the University of Granada and an MBA from the Polytechnic University of Madrid. I started working in small companies in the telecommunications sector until I came to Telefonica in 2000, so almost 25 years now. I have worked in different companies of the group, TSIP, Telefonica Mobile Solutions, Telefonica Soluciones and finally in Telefonica Móviles España.

Currently I work in the Technological Innovation department within Operations and Network. Our work is exciting, because we are at the forefront of technology touching everything where Telefonica can or has something to say, mobile technologies, fixed, TV, Artificial Intelligence, Quantum, virtual/augmented reality, etc.

I joined Telefónica last century, that’s nothing … in 1997. During more than a quarter of a century, I experienced many changes and I had the opportunity (and still do) to grow personally and professionally in every area I have been in.

Valuing my time at Telefónica is something natural for me, because at Telefónica I have gone through all my professional stages and it is an inseparable part of my life. It may sound trite, but this house is an extension of our families of origin.

I am Project Manager and head of external communications for Telefónica Hispanoamérica.

I have more than fifteen years of experience leading areas of Communication, Corporate Image and Public and Institutional Relations for multinational companies in the mining, mass consumption and telecommunications sectors.

I joined in 1989 as a breakdown engineer, I have worked in many departments and I am currently a Communications Technician. I have been in Ffth design and since 2019 I have been in charge of the Sanciones.plantaexterior.com mailbox.

Graduated in Computer Engineering from the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, I define myself as a proactive, communicative and highly responsible person, with an innate ability to adapt to changes and new challenges.

She started working as a scholarship holder while she was studying Business Administration at UADE (Universidad Argentina de la Empresa-Uade

She worked as a customer service representative, and dreamed of working in the Quality area, which she got years later. He was part of the Young Professionals programme in La Semana del Emprendizaje, Toledo, Spain.

He audited all the customer service channels in Argentina, seeking international certification in Customer Experience for each customer contact channel, which in turn allowed him to learn about all the operations in Latin America, both his own and those of third parties.

He made an international rotation to Venezuela in 2008.

She led several Digital Transformation projects, and became an Agile Coach.

For the last 5 years, from the Public Affairs team, she has been coordinating the Telefónica Open Future programme, which arises from partnerships with governments and institutions, seeking the development of new digital ecosystems.

Paula also holds a Master’s degree in Institutional Communications Management and works as a speaker and project coach/mentor.

She is restless and passionate about new technologies, lives in Buenos Aires, and has a little dog called Lucrecia.

I started at Telefónica de España in 2014 for a one-year scholarship from the SEPI foundation, and in July 2015 I joined the staff, in the data platforms and new business engineering team, which at the time was part of the general management of Services and Systems Development. For me, between the fact that I had only recently left university and that what I had studied had little or nothing to do with telecommunications, the truth is that I had the feeling of entering a completely new world. As I always say when I am asked: I arrived here without knowing what an IP address was.

In engineering, we were dedicated to managing the capacity of value-added services for companies, on two levels: on the one hand, we sized from year to year what the capacity differential was going to be based on business forecasts, on the customer funnel. On the other hand, we also had to foresee obsolescence or architecture evolutions for some important change or to incorporate new functionalities to these services. We budgeted for these needs and executed them in production in the following year, in coordination with other technical groups, suppliers, in parallel with Support and Operations, and upstream with the areas of Service Development, Technology and Marketing.

In the next few years, about a year before the pandemic, we changed roles and put on the cap of end-to-end capacity planners. It was a bit like before, but leaving aside the engineering activity on the plant floor, to put all the focus on capacity management in its different aspects: compute, disk, licences?

And just with the pandemic, in November 2020 and teleworking from home, I ended up in Innovation, which is where I am now. I look back and these almost four years have flown by. What can I say? When I tell them what we do in Innovation, they are surprised and, although it’s wrong to say it, we are a bit envious (of the good kind) and I almost always hear ‘what cool things you do there’. As Telefónica is so big and touches so many verticals, I think this carries over to the way we work, so we take on very diverse pilot projects, always working with customers from very different sectors, implementing solutions with them that in the end are new ways of doing things, innovative products, processes or services, and which put the company’s technological capabilities to the test, especially the 5G mobile network.

In short, I feel very fortunate to be in what I believe is the best area of one of the best companies in Spain.

A leader in Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) project management and its applicability in improving efficiency and process optimisation, with a focus on generating new business opportunities that generate impact in all geographies.

During my 16 years of experience in pre-sales and sales support roles at Telefónica, I have acquired a deep understanding of the complete sales cycle, from identifying customer needs to obtaining the offer. This background has led me to participate in business acceleration projects in several countries, including Venezuela, Chile, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru, Spain and Brazil, which has provided me with a valuable global perspective.

My focus is on maximising the potential of technology tools. With Salesforce, I have been able to significantly improve reporting and its usefulness for sales forces, transforming it into a tool that not only gathers information, but also delivers it in a strategic way. I have also explored and tested AI use cases to optimise processes and increase efficiency in pre-sales bidding.

My extensive experience as an engineer, moving from technical basics to business development, gives me a holistic view of the sales cycle and how to improve it. This perspective motivates me to lead business acceleration projects and to be a strong advocate of the potential of AI in this area.

As a mountain climber, I understand the importance of moving step by step towards the top, valuing each step and enjoying the journey. This approach is reflected in my work, where I seek to achieve goals gradually and steadily, taking every opportunity to grow and improve.

I have been with Telefónica for many years and I have had the opportunity to develop in different areas from customer care in Argentina to the present day working for Telefónica Hispanoamérica under the leadership of Miguel Calderón.

The assessment I make is extremely positive and of continuous learning, sharing work with collaborators, colleagues and in teams that taught me valuable knowledge and excellent values as a person are the reasons why I feel that Telefónica is a family for me.
