January 2012 - November 2021 (9 years and 11 months)
Bremen, United States
Responsible Manufacturing Engineer for Thermoplastic Composite Structures
• I successfully drove the development and implementation of automation solutions for CFRP components in the A-350 project of the Airbus Group.
• In collaboration with suppliers, I developed solutions for complex product requirements in special machine construction. Manual processes were automated. Methods, processes, and manufacturing concepts were newly developed.

Process Optimization and Quality Control
• In this role, I was a key player in process optimization and quality control, which led to a significant reduction in scrap and the introduction of more efficient manufacturing processes.

Project Manager for various technical projects
• As a project manager, I had the opportunity to implement interesting new topics. These included the development of an automated 3D clamping device and a zero-point clamping system for GROB 550 machines, permanent coating for forming tools, the development of laser marking for sheet metal parts, and waterjet cutting for titanium parts.

Relocation of Manufacturing Shares Abroad
• I was also responsible for the relocation and setup of manufacturing shares in Brasov (Romania). This primarily concerned technical and technological aspects on-site as well as the timely implementation of the relocation.

Design Consulting
• In addition to my interface function (Manufacturing/Toolmaking/Technology/Planning/Quality), I was also able to successfully drive new projects between Airbus and PAG as a crucial link between different teams in design consulting.
