I lead multi-PLM architecture and delivery for enterprise engineering transformation programs.
What I'm looking for
At Bosch Software and Digital Solutions, I lead CADMATIC WAVE and CONTACT Elements product development, solution architecture, and customer programs for Elomatic/TKMS, Ulstein, Meyer, and Saudi Aramco. I translate engineering requirements into reusable PLM capabilities spanning product structures, BOMs, document and part management, engineering change, integrations, migration, releases, go-live, and hypercare.
I've built my multi-PLM perspective through PTC Windchill consulting and large-scale migration work for aerospace and defense customers, including Halcon and Rolls-Royce. I lead a cross-functional team of around 10 across development, testing, infrastructure, migration, and documentation while staying closely connected to technology and engineering processes.
