Summary
After successfully completing my Master’s degree in Business Informatics with top grades, I started as an IT Project Manager and Business Analyst in the automotive industry. In this role, I worked worldwide on software solutions for demand planning, engineering, and sales. My analytical thinking, strong affinity for data, social skills, teamwork, and organizational talent all came in handy. Since I really enjoy leading IT projects both technically and organizationally, coordinating between different departments and developers, and managing complex data sets, I decided in September 2023 to return to my professional roots.
Besides solid knowledge in MS Excel, Power BI (Power Query, DAX), databases (SQL, T-SQL), data modeling (UML, BPMN), Scrum (Jira), and requirements engineering, I also bring personal skills I developed over the past years as a professional strategy gamer. As one of the top 8 players worldwide in a strategy game, I learned to continuously optimize my workflow and deliver outstanding results under pressure. These experiences taught me a structured, disciplined, and independent way of working that I want to bring to your company. I have also gained practical experience in generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) and large language models (LLM).
