Focus

Evidence Management | Supplier Steering | Series Maturity | Release Readiness | Escalation Management | Quality Gates | Development Improvement

Setup

Product manufacturers, system suppliers and engineering service providers. Distributed teams across multiple sites and continents. Technical leadership without disciplinary authority - steering through structure, evidence and escalation, not the org chart.

What I Do

I step into development under schedule, delivery or organisational pressure - scope unclear, ownership missing, contributions untraceable, release date no longer defensible. I create transparency on status, risks and decisions, then turn it into working structures, reporting and escalation - through to release and delivery maturity, so the team keeps running once I hand back.

Why Cross-Industry

Standards differ, the mechanics do not: requirement, risk, evidence, release. Having led this across automotive, rail, medical and industrial development, I spot a broken evidence chain faster than someone who knows one regulatory frame.

Core Strengths

- Leading engineering, project or delivery ownership end-to-end
- Stabilising development under delivery, compliance or ramp-up pressure
- Steering engineering across development, quality, suppliers and management
- Maturity tracking, release logic, evidence structures, assessment readiness
- Working standards for reviews, change control and decision-making
- Functional safety and cybersecurity across engineering and supplier interfaces
- Team enablement through workshops and training

Experience

Delivering complex products to series release, several manufacturers in parallel. Sites in Germany, Italy, France, North America and Japan. German native, fluent English.

Delivery side: I prepare and defend evidence towards independent assessors - not accredited as auditor or assessor.
