About Manh
I am a Germany-based PM with 4+ years of hands-on experience working with EU and US teams in engineering, technology, and software-driven environments.
In details, I work as an Engineering Project Manager / Technical Project Lead, supporting organizations in turning complex technical ideas into well-structured, executable projects. My background is rooted in automotive and industrial systems, with experience across vehicle dynamics, ADAS, EV programs, and simulation-based development, while increasingly applying the same delivery principles to software, automation, and digital projects.
I specialize in execution and delivery rather than heavy people management. In practice, this means:
- Translating high-level goals into clear project plans, milestones, and task structures
- Coordinating cross-functional and cross-company teams (engineering, QA, external partners)
- Tracking progress, risks, and dependencies to keep delivery predictable
- Acting as a reliable interface between engineering teams, management, and stakeholders
- Maintaining clear documentation, dashboards, and status reporting
I have a proven track record of delivering projects from concept through validation to product release, working in regulated, quality-focused environments shaped by European engineering standards. I am comfortable operating in distributed teams, collaborating across time zones, and working in English and German.
I am particularly well-suited for part-time or contract-based roles where structured execution, clarity, and accountability are required — whether for software projects, automation initiatives, or technical product delivery.
