Kurzprofil

I am a Quality Executive with over 15 years of experience in the automotive industry, specializing in quality management systems, process quality, and team leadership.

For more than 8 years, I have worked in managerial and executive roles, leading quality teams and coordinating incoming quality, process quality, laboratory testing, and audit activities in compliance with IATF 16949 and VDA 6.3.

Between 2018 and 2020, I took part in three international vehicle projects, supporting overseas commissioning activities and customer approval processes in a global automotive environment.

I have participated in 12+ IATF 16949 audits and 3 VDA 6.3 process audits, with strong hands-on experience in APQP / PPAP, customer complaint management (8D, 5 Why), and continuous improvement initiatives.

Early in my career, I contributed to a warranty cost reduction project, successfully reducing the company’s warranty responsibility ratio from 100% to a shared 50/50 level with the OEM, demonstrating strong problem-solving and negotiation capabilities.

In addition to my core quality background, electric vehicles, battery technologies, and new mobility concepts are a key professional interest of mine, aligning with the ongoing transformation of the automotive industry.

I hold a Six Sigma Green Belt certification and have advanced English (C1) and upper-intermediate German (B2) proficiency, with a strong focus on sustainable quality performance and customer satisfaction across the automotive supply chain.
