Hands-on automotive and product background that informs technical diligence: Early career roles and diploma work in the automotive supply chain (ZF Friedrichshafen) gave him practical experience building prototypes and supporting production ramps—skills he later applied to evaluating hardware-heavy and energy‑storage startups. businessbecause
