Sören: I started my career at the beginning of 2017 as a UI developer. I was quickly given additional responsibilities, as a result of which I also became active in the BI and backend area and managed projects there. This led me to project management and requirements management. I am currently continuing my activities in this area. I have intensive customer contact, understand operational processes and document and explain technical processes to employees.
Sören: I was looking for a new challenge and a completely different working environment. I found this here, the different cultures of the employees, the different working methods of the employees and the career opportunities convinced me at the time. Since then, I have developed from a UI developer to a software developer to a technical project manager. I also contribute to this by actively participating in tenders.
Sören: I am currently involved in two projects as a technical project manager / SPOC (Single Point of Contact). In one project we are 2 software developers, a support employee and me as PM. In the other one it is very similar where I share the PM role with another employee, plus a backend developer and a frontend developer.
Sören: In collaboration with the first team, we develop the DPP-OnePress application. This cloud application analyzes, processes and stores the data from our customer’s pressing plants at a central point in order to carry out targeted evaluations. At the same time, the data is also prepared for processing and forwarding to other systems.
We are working with the second team on the further development of the LISAweb application. This acts as a test data provision tool. This tool is used to generate test vehicle data that can be called up by other applications in a test environment in order to test the functionality of your own application. For this purpose, we provide interfaces that can be used by other applications in a productive environment.
Sören: To be honest, I can’t really think of anything special at the moment. There were projects that were successfully completed and handed over, but I often didn’t have the opportunity to experience the aftermath. This was either because I was immediately assigned to a new project and didn’t get to see the ongoing operations, or I was asked to start a new one in the middle of a project. Therefore, I cannot name any outstanding achievements or accomplishments. It is also possible that none of these situations were particularly noteworthy for me personally.
Sören: The company has continuously trusted in my potential and given me increasingly important and challenging tasks. Through this trust, the company has helped me to develop both personally and professionally in the direction I feel comfortable in.
Sören: I recommend that anyone who wants to pursue a career in project management should be good at dealing with people. It is important to master de-escalation skills, to be able to deal constructively with harsh criticism and also to be able to disagree in a differentiated manner.
