Hi there! I'm Marius, a passionate product manager who also oversees quality and the supply chain. This makes me the Product, Quality, and Supply Chain Manager at the startup Blossom-ic Intelligent Controls AG. Holding a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Industrial Engineering/Operations Management provides me with the right amount of knowledge in IT, engineering, as well as economics, and marketing to excel in these three roles. Having this cross-functional role gives me the right push and enables me to contribute to a healthy and high-performing product and company workflow. It fulfills my interest in problem-solving, finding adequate solutions, creating a structured working environment, seeking new product solutions, and being creative. When I'm not working, you can usually find me participating in sports like swimming, running, or biking, or you might find me playing my guitar and singing along. With the experience gained in product management in the field of IoT and the decarbonization of buildings, I'm dedicated to contributing to a better tomorrow with technology and strive for excellence in finding tomorrow's needed solutions. Fun fact: In life, I've discovered an intriguing truth: if something makes you nervous, it's likely worth pursuing. My journey has been one of constant exploration, leaving my hometown early on in search of new adventures and challenges. Each time I entertained the idea of moving, it felt like plunging into the unknown, but what I gained was invaluable. Through these experiences, I've learned the art of adaptation, delved deeper into understanding myself and my worth, and conquered inner fears. Embracing the unfamiliar has been a catalyst for personal growth, reminding me that it's always worthwhile to venture into the realm of discomfort, for therein lies the path to self-discovery and fulfillment. I'm excited to connect and share more about myself, and I look forward to learning about you too!
