Business development and operations at LoginEKO, expanding across European markets and developing partnerships for a product-traceability platform.
SwitzerlandWhat I'm looking for
At LoginEKO Establishment, I work across business development and operations, expanding into European markets and managing relationships with distributors, retailers, suppliers, and strategic partners.
I manage commercial and operational projects from opportunity assessment and negotiations through implementation and ongoing partner management. I also support market entry, including distribution, regulatory requirements, packaging compliance, and deposit systems, and lead business development for a digital product-traceability and marketplace platform.
At Hilti, I supported global IT initiatives between business stakeholders and technical teams. I project-managed an SAP integration initiative and prepared IT architecture documentation to support internal review and approval.
My earlier work includes conducting research on a Brain-Computer Interface method for stroke rehabilitation at the University of Vienna, designing UX/UI at NOKNOK MEDIA, and coordinating development of a remote video-editing product at 507Studio. With a background in Computer Science, Mathematics, and Cognitive Science, I enjoy working at the intersection of business, technology, and operations.
