I am responsible for the office for the project management of Value Engineering and Research and Development for our business with energy and sustainability solutions. We help to find more efficient opportunities to produce our existing products and ensure that our new product development remains on schedule. We focus on energy process technology, devices and services.

I wanted to help people and make the world a better and safer place for future generations. I take care of the environment very much, so I have followed a degree in chemical engineering and completed my doctorate in Nanabattery Research.

I love working with people throughout the organization and all over the world to solve difficult problems. The feeling you get when you reach a solution is incredible.

My advice would be to stay flexible for new opportunities. Take a look at your skills and find out what you lack and concentrate on finding experiences that help close these gaps. You will be a round engineer and it will help you find out where you want to take your next step.
