I am responsible for the ergonomic and aesthetic design of parts made of PP and Duroplast. I sketch out the ideas and present it to clients or the sales department. I work closely with tool development and production in terms of project management.

I am responsible for the serial development of components connected with water guiding in a clothes dryer (mostly PP and ABS plastics as well as silicone and EPDM rubber in terms of materials). I deal mostly with rationalization and quality topics as well as production support. I also work closely with our pre-dev teams in Berlin.
The work I do revolves around small-to-mid sized projects (with the occasional big one), for which I am fully responsible. I provide the solution, model it in NX and introduce it into production (tool orders/modifications, supplier contact, assembly trials, etc. – all in cooperation with purchasing, quality and supply chain departments).

As a Trainee in the BSH headquarters in Munich I worked in 4 departments for 3 months each. Two of them were in the HQ itself, while for the others I was delegated to other sites. In each of them I was responsible for doing specific projects (in addition to one group project which lasted the whole year). The departments were: Bosch Design (Laundry Care), Product Management (Laundry Care), Test Team (Dishwashers, Dillingen an der Donau - DE), Development (Dishwashers, Estella - ES)
