25 years ago I started my career as a Development Engineer. In the first years I gained my skills in product and production process development by means of an extensive project for a major player in the automotive sector, using well-known automotive methodologies such as APQP (Advance Product Quality Planning), FMEA (Failure Mode & Effect Analyses) and PPAP (Production Part Approval Process). After that, over a period of 4 years I expanded my experience as Production Manager in the field of People Management, Production Planning and Control, Maintenance and Supply Chain Management. My career took a new turn for two years in the role of Project Manager. A challenging job, in which my work consisted of taking on assignments, designing, manufacturing and installing steel structures. With the technical skills and experience in my toolbox I took the challenge in a new job as technical sales manager. I carried out sales from a purely technical perspective I like to act as a spider in the web in the route from product design to production realization, supplies and service. With my broad experience, I like to advise and support engineers in their development process, with focus on feasibility and costs. For me, a personal and open relationship with customers and suppliers is essential and a key condition for success.
