After successfully completing my diploma in lightweight engineering and polymer technology at the technical university of Dresden, I have been responsible since 2012 for plastics and fibre-reinforced composites at the AUDI AG and now at the Volkswagen Group Innovation of the Volkswagen Group. In addition to evaluating and qualifying a wide range of materials and enabling and optimising manufacturing processes for large-scale automotive production, I also support the various development departments in the context of potential assessments and feasibility studies.I was able to acquire and deepen the following knowledge and skills during my professional career:• Profound material understanding of plastics, especially fibre-reinforced composites• Hands-on experience of various testing and manufacturing processes• Technological and economical evaluation of composite design and derivation of improvement measures• Utilization of different software tools (MS Office, CAE, data analysis and graphing)Furthermore, I had the opportunity to apply and expand this knowledge in several internal and public projects and to share it at various national and international symposiums. I was also able to demonstrate my professional and social skills in various fields:- Organisation and management of research and development projects (e.g. BMBF Prolei, BMBF STYQZAHL, internal projects) - Publication of selected results in different journals (i.e. Composite Part A - DOI: 10.1016/j.compositesa.2020.105857, Materials Today - DOI: 10.1016/j.matpr.2020.03.550)- Presenting of selected project contents at professional conferences (i.e. 1st international conference on industrial Applications of adhesives 2020, Automotive Circle - Fügen im Karosseriebau 2019)- Acting in a multi-national project environment- Supporting project work by supervising student internships and theses
