Since studying mechanical engineering, I have always enjoyed manufacturing environments. I started to work at Siemens as a Trainee and spent the first year already working on manufacturing related IT services, such as the introduction of a manufacturing execution system. After finishing the Trainee program I started with the IoT journey, focusing on integrating Industrial Edge into Siemens shopfloor environments for productive use. This includes the first implementation of edge devices in a factory as well as the service operations needed to run a ML model in a factory. Soon I began to work in architectures regarding Industrial Edge at first and broadening my view to the overall set up of closed loop manufacturing use cases. Moreover, the optimization of operations requires constant innovation of the existing implementation, as different solutions enter the market. In 2024 I was named Senior Key Expert for Digital Transformation, especially in the fields of Industrial IoT and Edge Computing.

I like the production processes. To be able to go to the roots and see the products that a company is producing. To see the manufacturing process, to hear the noise of the machines and smell the odors of production firsthand. The optimization of the production process can be very complex and challenging, but it fulfills me to see the result in the end. Moreover, I like the constant change within the IoT area. It is great to see the evolution of technology and to be a frontrunner in using new technologies and products to enhance the user experience.
