Back to original languageAbout David
Graduate Engineer (FH) in Mechanical Engineering with over ten years of practical experience at 3M Germany GmbH – including three years as Global PLM Project Lead for the Electrical Markets Division. Not a typical office engineer, but one who can not only plan processes but also implement, audit, and explain them.
Offering technical project management, PLM consulting, or interim Scrum Product Owner for the DACH region. The special strength: quick familiarization with completely new subject areas, no fear of unknown industries or technologies. In addition, a mix of pragmatism, obstinate goal pursuit, and extremely structured, methodical approach – the bridge between technology and management, not just on paper.
