How I see Myself

Solve a problem every day – at least one…

There is hardly a better feeling, than going home from work and to know: I’ve done it! Therefore an in-depth understanding of the theoretical background as well as a highly refined sense for best solution is indispensable. So, lifelong learning is not just a hollow phrase for me.
My continuous education and successful work experiences emphasize that – as shown in my CV above.

There is no solution to a problem? There is one! There’s no way out? There always is one! It is all a matter of structured work, ability to abstract, determination and the most difficult in today’s business world: patience.
My professional experience and skills have proven this time after time.

The Ideal Company for Me

The perfect company for me lives the spirit of a mutual relationship: On the one hand the company, which gives the employee the chance to improve his skills and personality. One the other hand the employee, who returns the prior gained expert knowledge through his more efficient work and his ability to solve more complex problems – for the benefit of the whole company.
And this is not a matter of the size, but rather a matter of the leadership and management style of the company.
The job of my dreams combines technical with leadership challenges and furthermore offers room for innovation and creativity.

You spend approximately a third of your lifetime in your job and talk more to your colleagues than to your wife. So this time must not be wasted!
