Executive leader in global software engineering and organizational transformation within automotive and mobility. --------------------- As a Chief Operating Officer with a strong background in global software engineering, I combine deep technical expertise with strategic transformation leadership. My core focus is the realization and continuous development of complex software products — from strategy and architecture to scalable execution. In my previous role as Vice President Software Engineering, I was globally responsible for software standards and a state-of-the-art operating systems platform, leading more than 500 engineers and leaders across direct and functional reporting lines. I have a strong track record of translating vision into reliable, compliant and market-ready software products at scale. Today, I focus on building organizations, operating models and cultures that enable product excellence: clear ownership, efficient execution, transparent governance and trust-based leadership. My passion lies in empowering teams to deliver high-quality software products in complex, highly regulated environments. Operating at the intersection of Automotive, Mobility and Software Engineering, I am committed to shaping organizations that are trusted, compliant and innovative — and that consistently turn technology into real-world products and impact.
