What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role that fosters innovation and collaboration, with opportunities for growth in product management and strategic development.

As a dedicated Product Owner and Project Lead, I have a proven track record of leading teams in a Scrum environment to deliver innovative solutions, particularly in the realm of IoT and remote services. My experience at Jember GmbH has allowed me to manage product backlogs, define strategic roadmaps, and ensure seamless integration for high-profile clients like BMW. I thrive on bridging the gap between technical implementation and strategic product direction, ensuring that every project not only meets technical feasibility but also drives significant business impact.

My journey in technology began with a Bachelor's thesis focused on developing a web-based IoT test bench control system, which laid the groundwork for my passion for M2M communication and product management. I have honed my skills in various roles, from Development Engineer to working student positions at renowned companies like Airbus and Knorr-Bremse. My commitment to continuous learning is evident as I pursue an Executive MBA alongside my full-time role, focusing on strategic management and business analytics.
