I help companies strategically and practically implement innovative technologies – from identifying suitable use cases (Artificial Intelligence, Quantum Computing) to driving digital transformation and process optimization in production, logistics, and manufacturing.
With strong expertise in project and innovation management, agile leadership, and software product management, I support teams from concept to market-ready solutions.
My engineering background in electrical engineering (M.Sc), mechanical engineering (Ph.D / Dr.-Ing.), and simulation is complemented by deep knowledge of automation, mathematical optimization, data science, Python, and sensor technologies (e.g., Indoor Positioning).
Current focus areas include quantum computing, digital twins, deep tech, manufacturing automation, and sustainable innovation.
