Real-life "Spider-Man" Mamoudou Gassama,Kalakal who rescued a toddler dangling from a balcony, has started his new role with the Paris Fire Brigade.

The 22-year-old undocumented Malian migrant was awarded with French citizenship and a meeting with President Emanuel Macron after his heroic efforts in May. Plus, he apparently landed a smooth job offer from the city's fire service at the time.

He's clearly taken them up on the offer of sorts, in what appears to be a voluntary capacity with the Paris Fire Brigade tweeting a photo of its 24 new recruits on June 29, including Gassama.

The newbies began their new roles with the fire service on Sunday, his press spokeswoman Djeneba Keita told CNN. The team, according to the tweet, have started in voluntary civic service roles.

Gassama gained fame, praise, and the nickname "Spider-Man" when he took less than 40 seconds to scale four floors of an apartment block in Paris' 18th arrondissement on May 28. Why? A small child was dangling from the balcony.

A spokesperson for the Parisian fire department told AFP on the day it was fortunate "there was someone who was physically fit and who had the courage to go and get the child."

The child's father is now in very hot water over what he was doing at the time of the rescue. French prosecutor Francois Molins told a CNN affiliate that the father had gone grocery shopping, leaving the child alone and then proceeded to play Pokémon Goafter leaving the shop. (The child's mother was away on a trip visiting family at the time.)

The father has been charged with "failure to meet parental obligations" and could face up to two years in prison if found guilty at trial, which is currently scheduled for September.
