Technology & Program Manager at ASAM e.V. coordinating automotive simulation and ADAS standards from proposal through publication.

Germany
Message

At ASAM e.V., I coordinate international standardisation projects for automotive simulation, ADAS and automated-driving development and validation. I guide work from initial proposals through technical development, review and publication, bringing together experts from OEMs, suppliers, tool vendors and research organisations.

Before ASAM, I worked across automotive engineering, including HIL validation for autonomous-driving systems at IAV GmbH and development coordination for E/E control units at IAV GmbH and Valmet Automotive. My experience also includes testing and vehicle integration for driver-assistance systems, with programmes including a BMW driver-monitoring system and a Rolls-Royce instrument-cluster platform.
