Meerhout, Flemish Region, Belgium
Engineering teams don’t struggle with ideas, they struggle with bringing complex systems into production, faster and with confidence. That’s where I come in. For over almost two decades, I’ve worked with aerospace, automotive, and industrial R&D organizations across the Benelux and Germany to help them reduce development risk, shorten time‑to‑market, and scale engineering impact using model‑based design and simulation-driven workflows. As an Account Manager at MathWorks (MATLAB & Simulink), I don’t sell software features. I help engineering leaders answer hard questions such as: ✅ How do we accelerate innovation without increasing technical debt? ✅ How do we move from prototypes to production with fewer handovers? ✅ How do we justify tooling decisions with real business impact? What clients value working with me ✅ Strategic perspective, I understand both the technical depth and the commercial reality behind complex R&D decisions. ✅ Credibility with engineers, I work closely with MathWorks Application Engineers and domain experts to ensure solutions are technically sound and pragmatically deployable. ✅ Long-term partnership mindset, From evaluation to enterprise-wide adoption, I focus on outcomes, not transactions. Proven impact I’ve supported organizations such as aerospace agencies, Tier‑1 suppliers, research institutes, and industrial OEMs in: ✅ Transitioning from legacy workflows to scalable model‑based approaches ✅ Aligning engineering, IT, and management around a shared development roadmap ✅ Maximizing ROI from engineering toolchains through Enterprise License Agreements and structured onboarding How I typically add value ✅ Identifying where simulation and automation create the biggest leverage ✅ Structuring pilots and onboarding programs that actually get adopted ✅ Translating technical benefits into business-relevant arguments for management Let’s connect If you’re responsible for engineering performance, system complexity, or scaling development methods, and want a pragmatic sparring partner.
