About Florian
Technical Delivery Manager with 10+ years of experience delivering complex software and system integration projects across automotive, enterprise software, and consumer products.
I specialize in complex delivery environments where multiple engineering teams, technical dependencies, and business stakeholders must stay aligned to deliver successfully. Working with international teams across Europe and the Americas, I bridge business and engineering to create structure, improve transparency, and keep delivery moving.
Porsche (via IAV)
Joined a software integration initiative that had delivered little measurable progress for months. Established a structured delivery model across development, testing, and operations, coordinating 20+ technical stakeholders across two vehicle programs. Introduced delivery governance through Jira, Git, executive reporting, and release readiness processes, resulting in 30+ production releases, predictable delivery cycles, and a significant improvement in sponsor confidence.

Led delivery across engineering and support teams for global recipe management platforms supporting international business operations. Improved delivery governance through optimized Jira workflows, release management, resource planning, and stakeholder alignment while supporting deployments across multiple continents. Improved delivery predictability, strengthened collaboration between business and engineering, and significantly increased project sponsor satisfaction.
I combine project management discipline, delivery leadership, and a strong technical foundation to align teams, simplify complex system integrations, and drive predictable software delivery.
