Senior Technology Domain Leader with a demonstrated history of working in the industrial relevant research environment. Skilled in Thermal Management and advanced cooling, lubrication & sealing technologies in e-drives. Strong engineering professional with a Dr.-Ing. focused in Engineering Science from RWTH Aachen University.
Working in the CoreLab MotionS as tech domain leader (Drivetrain Technologies) encounters roadmapping, project definitions, and a team leading & coaching role to generate industrial relevant innovation & according re-usable tools within a properly defined project portfolio. The Drivetrain Technologies team focuses on new technologies & according research topics related to light & heavy vehicles (EV, e-motor cycle, e-ship, off-high way, commercial vehicles), e-machine & DC grid applications. Our Mission is to verify the system performance of new technologies and build the bridge between basic research results from universities and industry.
