I'm originally from Shanghai, China, and I have been residing in Switzerland for over 15 years. I hold a Ph.D. in Physics from EPFL in Lausanne, which I completed in 2015. Following my graduation, I relocated to the eastern part of Switzerland to embark on my industrial career in the field of semiconductors. After 5 years in Product Marketing at Evatec AG, I’m excited to step into a new role as Senior Strategic Marketing Manager starting September 2025. In this position, I’ll support the Evatec Group and CMO organization in driving strategic initiatives, market intelligence, and business development to strengthen our long-term market position, competitiveness, and growth. I greatly value the youthful, dynamic, and multicultural environment at Evatec. Regardless of the challenges presented by our projects, we consistently achieve success through the dedication of my colleagues and our commitment to exceptional teamwork.

Since 2022, I've been working as an application engineer at Evatec. My tasks are to check if the hardware, software and processes of the CLUSTERLINE® 200 tools meet the customer specifications. Before my career at Evatec, I did an apprenticeship as automatician and then proceeded to get the bachelor's degree in System technology with major in Micro technology at the NTB (now OST). Evatec is my first employer in the thin film and semiconductor industry, and has provided me with hands-on experience and exciting challenges. I've also gained insights into potential new projects and innovations by assisting process engineers. Working at Evatec offers great time management freedom and a supportive environment, with exceptional professionalism and strong relationships with managers and coworkers. Traveling is part of the job, with opportunities to conduct tests at our headquarters in Trübbach and customer sites. I've traveled to Singapore and China, with more destinations on the horizon. If you're looking for a dynamic and supportive workplace, Evatec is the place to be!

I work as a Process System Specialist (PSS) in the cleanrooms at our Trübbach site. My responsibilities include maintaining and modifying laboratory equipment to ensure it is ready for new developments. I am also responsible for monitoring laboratory safety when working with the equipment and the process gases used. I have been part of Evatec since December 2021, after completing my Master's degree in Photonic Engineering. Working as a PSS gives me the opportunity to acquire in-depth expertise and build broad, cross-system competencies. The strong exchange within the team plays a key role in helping us grow and develop together. The technological challenges of our advancing society motivate me every day to support in-house product development in the best possible way. I am particularly fascinated by the development of process-capable systems for piezo materials – a promising and exciting field of work. In my free time, I enjoy playing sports, volunteering a club, and spending time in nature at our beautiful location in the Rhine Valley.

Since April 2022, I’ve been working at Evatec as Head of Logistics and Order Processing. My focus is on designing efficient logistics processes and ensuring reliable delivery times – both internally and for our customers. In a fast-changing global supply chain environment, I enjoy developing smart solutions and driving improvements with my team. With a strong background in logistics and leadership, I’ve managed various projects and completed advanced training – most recently as a certified logistics manager (NDS HF). What I really appreciate about Evatec is the strong team spirit and our “Du” culture. Even though we’re a global company, people know each other, and the flat hierarchies allow for quick decisions and close collaboration. I also value our modern tools and systems, which help us stay ahead. Outside of work, I recharge through sports – either at the gym or occasionally on the football field. But most of all, I enjoy spending time with my family, who give me the energy I need to face new challenges.

I started my apprenticeship at Evatec as a Mechanical Engineer back in 2017. It was a great way for me to begin my career and learn about the different platforms our company manufactures. Since 2021 I have been part of the CLUSTERLINE® 200 Engineering Team. We keep the machines up to date with design modifications and new components. I really like the variety in my job as well as the possibility to work in a great team. In my free time I love to produce music as a DJ. Perhaps we might meet when I’m performing at a local club or festival.

After studying mechanical engineering, I started as a field engineer back in 2013 before working on secondment at Evatec South East Asia for a few years. Living in Singapore was perfect to learn about our local customer base through my work as a local Field Service Manager and a great base from which to enjoy the food, culture and explore the region. I returned to Munich as Field Service Manager Europe in 2020. Every day at work is different. One minute I can be developing a new training package for a customer, and the next I can be organizing an engineer visit for an urgent tool down. To destress after a long day there’s nothing I like more than getting outdoors with my camera and searching for that perfect shot of an amazing landscape or night sky.

I am a Retrofit Manager within our customer service team responsible for upgrades and retrofits of the installed base. Daily tasks range from preparing specifications and quotations to project managing the manufacturing of retrofit kits then supporting our Sales & Service Organizations until the project is completed to our customer's satisfaction. Having completed my studies in systems engineering and worked as an Engineering Manager for 15 years I started at Evatec in 2021. I am a huge football fan and an active football referee but after a long working day I also enjoy poker - it’s a great game of skill and I love the challenge of beating my opponents.

It was a great honour to be recruited as the second employee when Evatec first established its own Sales and Service Organization in China in 2017. I graduated from Shandong University majoring in Finance, and after a couple of other roles before joining Evatec I am now in charge of our office team. We are responsible for order processing, logistics, finance, HR, events and administration. I really admire the team work spirit and generally believe in the philosophy “ trust your buddies- if you want to go fast, go alone, if you want to go far, go together.” When I am not working i like to relax with a book and a cup of tea. If you add a cake, it’s a fantastic weekend.

I am a senior scientist with our multidisciplinary Solutions Design team working across all Evatec business units. We aim to give our customers the lead through continuous development of better manufacturing hardware and processes for their new device developments. In joining Evatec in 2010 I switched sides from using thin film deposition tools to manufacturing them and the day to day user perspective I brought with me certainly helps me in my job today. My work takes me on visits to customers, research partners and conferences around the world as I present our technology developments and learn from other experts in our field. Then when I’m home again there’s nothing I enjoy more than being outside in the swiss countryside with my family.

I have been working in this industry for almost 25 years - with Balzers, BPS, Unaxis, Oerlikon and now Evatec. After completing my apprenticeship as a truck mechanic, I worked in various industries including transport, mechanical and metal construction before joining Balzers in 1995. I then started there as a mechanic, gaining several promotions to become group and team leader. I joined Evatec in 2015, and I am now Head of Assembly. My main tasks are to lead the assembly teams and ensure that all our systems are manufactured and tested to be ready on time for our customers.

I am a materials scientist and part of the process team in our Advanced Packaging Business Unit. Our customers are always looking to the future so my main tasks are the development of new etch and deposition processes for continuous improvement of our production systems and components. It’s very satisfying to see what I have developed implemented at customers around the globe. Outside of Evatec I do voluntary work helping foreign nationals integrate when they arrive in my local community but then I enjoy relaxing with all the outdoor possibilities that the Rhine valley has to offer.

I grew up in Japan but I have been living and working in Switzerland for over 30 years now. As a Controller at Evatec headquarters I work with all our financial teams around the globe. My main tasks are preparing financial reports for the Board of Directors and the management team. It probably goes without saying but I really like facts and figures. Accuracy is all important in many aspects of my work and our customers expect nothing less. I really enjoy it when everything adds up correctly. I get lots of job satisfaction too when the data, reports and forecasts I provide keep our management informed and help them make decisions and take any actions they need. Working in this industry for over 25 years probably tells you a lot about how much I like it.

After a short internship where I came in contact with vacuum systems for the first time I decided to make my bachelor degree in system engineering with special focus on mechanical engineering. I joined the company in 2017 after completing my studies and these days I am a Process System Specialist in our Evatec Competence Laboratory (ECL) where we help customers develop the next generation of thin film processes. Typically, my job involves preparing our sputter tools for samplings by changing targets, magnet systems and any other hardware required. If something on our lab tools does not work as it should, it’s my job to find the cause and fix it quickly. Our laboratory has to help many customers around the globe, so we really need to avoid unexpected tool down situations. I love being part of a team working on developments for the future

by taking care of our lab tools and making sure they are always ready on time for customer sampling work.

I am one of the HR Managers at Evatec. Delivering the best products and services to customers demands the best people, so it’s crucial for our company to hire them, get them off to a flying start in their work and invest in developing their skills with long term training and development. Right now our company is growing fast so my main focus is recruitment of new employees for our headquarters in Truebbach and I am very proud that I can make a difference here. A typical day in the office for me involves checking CV’s, organizing interviews or trial work days, and finalizing work contracts. I really like the variety in our business and our company. Every day involves working with different people from different countries having many diverse cultural backgrounds.

After training as an electrician I worked as a systems technician for several years before graduating from the technical college. I joined Evatec in 2016 and am now working in systems engineering at our headquarters in Switzerland. I develop and test hardware and software solutions on and around our systems. However, my work doesn’t end once the tool is delivered to our customer. Continuous improvement is part of our company culture, so I am always working behind the scenes on continuous adjustments and developments that

customers request to enhance performance or introduce new capabilities they need in the future.

I joined Evatec in 2022 but already knew Evatec technologies because of my previous experience as a PVD application manager. I studied Material Science and Engineering at Shanghai Jiao Tong University and then engaged in PVD related technical work for more than 10 years. Today I’m a Technical Marketing Manager in Evatec China (ECN). As a part of our sales force, my responsibility includes providing technical support to sales project and marketing promotions. In a typical week I spend 3 to 4 days on the road visiting customers and 1 or 2 days at our Shanghai office. I love the challenging work at Evatec. Every day I learn new things about the exciting technologies that we deliver to customers. When I am not working I enjoy my time with friends over an afternoon tea or visit the gym to keep fit.

As a Process Engineer at Evatec, I contribute to the development and optimization of advanced thin film processes that support both customer applications and internal technology projects. Whether it’s qualifying processes for customer systems or co-developing new technologies, my work is always focused on delivering high-quality and reliable solutions. Since joining Evatec in 2019, I’ve had the opportunity to lead process development projects, support process activities on customer sites and take process responsibility for key innovations—such as for our new PEALD platform. My background in system engineering and micro- and nanotechnology, combined with experience in quality management and process engineering, has helped me thrive in this dynamic environment. What I value most at Evatec is the collaborative spirit. Working with experts across various disciplines to solve complex challenges is both motivating and rewarding. It’s a place where you can grow—technically and personally—while contributing to technologies that shape the future. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my wife and my two boys, catching up with friends, staying active outdoors, playing squash and being part of the local gymnastics club.

After studying mechanical engineering at the University of Malaya and 16 years of work experience, I joined Evatec in 2016 where I am now the Head of Customer Service for the Southeast Asia (SEA) and Japan regions. Our team takes care of the equipment installation, FAT & troubleshooting at the customer’s site. We also support spare parts and retrofit sales activities. I regularly travel in the SEA region and Japan for customer visits as well as service team meetings. From time to time, I will meet my colleagues in our head quarter at Switzerland. I love the variety of challenges and the work flexibility at Evatec. Outside of work I am a basketball coach for primary school students, and I like to spend time hiking with friends.

I joined Evatec Taiwan as an Application Engineer in 2017. Back then I had been working with production tools and supporting customers. Over the years, I had the opportunity to grow within the company — first transitioning into the role of Technical Marketing Manager, and today, I work as a Product Marketing Manager. In this role, I drive the strategic direction and lifecycle management of product and application solutions within the Semiconductor and Advanced Packaging segments. My responsibilities include market research, positioning, go-to-market strategy, pricing, campaigning, and innovation roadmaps. I collaborate closely with product, sales, and marketing teams to ensure alignment with business goals, customer needs, and competitive trends. I love exchanging ideas among the team and providing solutions to our customers. In my spare time, I am a big football fan so I watch football games whenever I can, and I also enjoy playing badminton.

I studied automation engineering at university and worked as an equipment engineer for several years before joining Evatec in 2017 where I am now the Head of Customer Service for our Taiwan Branch. I lead our service team and we provide on-site service and process developments to our Taiwan customers. Typically, I spend 2 or 3 days per week for customer visits. Customer Satisfaction is one of our main goals, but we also have to meet the interests of the company, so one of my biggest challenges is to constantly communicate with all stakeholders and find compromises. To relax outside of work, I like to go camping with my family and friends.

I joined Evatec in May 2023 starting with an intensive two-month training course at our headquarters in Switzerland where I learnt about Evatec and their products. I originally studied physics at university, where my research focused on the properties of thin films in solar panels. After that, I worked as a sales engineer in vacuum technology for about 12 years. As a Sales Manager within Evatec Japan, my job is to help explain the benefits of our technology to our customers. Since my first day at the company I could feel the passion in our people for their work making it a thrilling experience. I am excited for what the future will bring.

I have spent my entire career in sales and marketing of vacuum components and systems since I graduated from university. I joined Evatec as the Sales Manager for Photonics in North America in 2021. I manage our existing customers in the USA and focus on new business development. Hybrid working is great, whether it is time spent face to face time with colleagues in the Clearwater Florida office, working from my home or travelling on business. I love the interaction with customers. I particularly appreciate that I can bring in my own ideas and initiatives in my role helping them find the best production solutions for their different applications together with the rest of the Evatec team. Next to work I really like going on long bicycle rides with my friends or spend the time with my family.

After nearly two decades in warehouse and shipping, I started a new adventure as a logistician at Evatec in October 2022. My days now revolve around receiving, checking and booking deliveries of goods, carrying out inventories and picking orders for our assembly and customers. Getting to know the logistical processes at Evatec was a challenge that I took on with curiosity and determination. Although Evatec is a large company, we have a family culture and a very pleasant working atmosphere, which I really appreciate. Outside of work, I enjoy quality time with my loved ones and going on short bike tours.

After successfully completing my apprenticeship as an automation technician here at Evatec, I now work in the Operations team as a System Technician. My job is to check the tools we produce and set them up correctly. This involves checking the safety functions and optimize the system, collaborating closely with the project manager and the system engineers, and even fine-tuning hardware and software for peak productivity. I like the independence in my job. Most of the training I received while working with the tools was hands-on, there is a lot of learning by doing and a lot of self-discipline for self-education involved. Outside of work you’ll often find me at the Street Workout Park or simply relishing life's moments

After completing my commercial apprenticeship, I continued my training in human resources. For over 10 years, I’ve been working in this field, applying my expertise at Evatec in Trübbach since 2023. As an HR Assistant, I oversee the entire administration, with a focus on managing our HR software. My responsibilities include handling entries and exits, certificates, accidents, illnesses, and more. I appreciate the collaborative environment with my colleagues, the diverse tasks, and the autonomy I enjoy at Evatec. Working in HR, I find fulfillment in connecting with people, understanding their needs, and supporting their professional growth. Outside of work, I love traveling and spending weekends exploring different cities and countries.

I studied micro systems engineering at the university for applied science in Buchs. After working as an application engineer, process engineer, and serving as the Manager of Application Engineering in the BU Semi division, I was recently promoted to Head of Evatec Competence Laboratory (ECL). Now, my days are a delicate balancing act—coordinating resources, ensuring smooth operations, and meeting the needs of all stakeholders. However, I thrive on the challenges and cutting-edge technology in the Semi Industry and being able to work in such a high-tech environment in Switzerland is amazing. In my downtime, I indulge my inner nerd. Repairing electronic devices, troubleshooting, and performing delicate micro-soldering—it’s my passion. And once a week, I trade circuits for a squash racket, enjoying friendly matches with colleagues. Family time with my wife and kids adds the perfect balance to my tech-filled days.

I am originally from Mexico where I worked in the automotive industry for 7 years and moved to Switzerland for new career opportunities. I recently joined Evatec as a project leader for special initiatives within the Operational Excellence team. I lead change management efforts and ensure smooth transitions. By coordinating various working groups, I foster cross-functional collaboration. I am passionate about introducing new methodologies and systems to optimize processes, while aligning our work with organizational goals. Evatec's dynamic environment and friendly colleagues make it an exciting place to work. Outside of work, I enjoy connecting with nature - whether it's a walk along the river, a weekend hike, or a leisurely bike ride. And of course, spending time with friends and family over delicious meals and lively gatherings is a must.

I joined the Marketing & Communications (Marcoms) department in November 2022. My educational background includes a commercial apprenticeship, but my passion for creative roles led me to marketing. After an internship as a Marketing Assistant, I knew this was the path I wanted to take. At Evatec, my role is very diverse - I support everything from global exhibitions to advertising, website management, communications, social media, branding, video creation and organizing special events. The variety of my work keeps me engaged and excited every day. One of the things I value most about working at Evatec is the freedom and trust my team has given me. Working with colleagues from all over the world is incredibly rewarding and it's inspiring to be part of a team that supports each other and works towards common goals. Travelling for work is another exciting aspect of my role. I occasionally get the opportunity to attend exhibitions and conferences, where I help with our booth and network with industry professionals. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time outdoors with friends and family and travelling to sunny destinations.

What I value most at Evatec is the collaborative spirit. Working with experts across various disciplines to solve complex challenges is both motivating and rewarding. It’s a place where you can grow—technically and personally—while contributing to technologies that shape the future. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my wife and my two boys, catching up with friends, staying active outdoors, playing squash and being part of the local gymnastics club.

After studying mechanical engineering at the University of Malaya and 16 years of work experience, I joined Evatec in 2016 where I am now the Head of Customer Service for the Southeast Asia (SEA) and Japan regions. Our team takes care of the equipment installation, FAT & troubleshooting at the customer’s site. We also support spare parts and retrofit sales activities. I regularly travel in the SEA region and Japan for customer visits as well as service team meetings. From time to time, I will meet my colleagues in our head quarter at Switzerland. I love the variety of challenges and the work flexibility at Evatec. Outside of work I am a basketball coach for primary school students, and I like to spend time hiking with friends.

I joined Evatec Taiwan as an Application Engineer in 2017. Back then I had been working with production tools and supporting customers. Over the years, I had the opportunity to grow within the company — first transitioning into the role of Technical Marketing Manager, and today, I work as a Product Marketing Manager. In this role, I drive the strategic direction and lifecycle management of product and application solutions within the Semiconductor and Advanced Packaging segments. My responsibilities include market research, positioning, go-to-market strategy, pricing, campaigning, and innovation roadmaps. I collaborate closely with product, sales, and marketing teams to ensure alignment with business goals, customer needs, and competitive trends. I love exchanging ideas among the team and providing solutions to our customers. In my spare time, I am a big football fan so I watch football games whenever I can, and I also enjoy playing badminton.

I studied automation engineering at university and worked as an equipment engineer for several years before joining Evatec in 2017 where I am now the Head of Customer Service for our Taiwan Branch. I lead our service team and we provide on-site service and process developments to our Taiwan customers. Typically, I spend 2 or 3 days per week for customer visits. Customer Satisfaction is one of our main goals, but we also have to meet the interests of the company, so one of my biggest challenges is to constantly communicate with all stakeholders and find compromises. To relax outside of work, I like to go camping with my family and friends.

I joined Evatec in May 2023 starting with an intensive two-month training course at our headquarters in Switzerland where I learnt about Evatec and their products. I originally studied physics at university, where my research focused on the properties of thin films in solar panels. After that, I worked as a sales engineer in vacuum technology for about 12 years. As a Sales Manager within Evatec Japan, my job is to help explain the benefits of our technology to our customers. Since my first day at the company I could feel the passion in our people for their work making it a thrilling experience. I am excited for what the future will bring.

I have spent my entire career in sales and marketing of vacuum components and systems since I graduated from university. I joined Evatec as the Sales Manager for Photonics in North America in 2021. I manage our existing customers in the USA and focus on new business development. Hybrid working is great, whether it is time spent face to face time with colleagues in the Clearwater Florida office, working from my home or travelling on business. I love the interaction with customers. I particularly appreciate that I can bring in my own ideas and initiatives in my role helping them find the best production solutions for their different applications together with the rest of the Evatec team. Next to work I really like going on long bicycle rides with my friends or spend the time with my family.

After nearly two decades in warehouse and shipping, I started a new adventure as a logistician at Evatec in October 2022. My days now revolve around receiving, checking and booking deliveries of goods, carrying out inventories and picking orders for our assembly and customers. Getting to know the logistical processes at Evatec was a challenge that I took on with curiosity and determination. Although Evatec is a large company, we have a family culture and a very pleasant working atmosphere, which I really appreciate. Outside of work, I enjoy quality time with my loved ones and going on short bike tours.

After successfully completing my apprenticeship as an automation technician here at Evatec, I now work in the Operations team as a System Technician. My job is to check the tools we produce and set them up correctly. This involves checking the safety functions and optimize the system, collaborating closely with the project manager and the system engineers, and even fine-tuning hardware and software for peak productivity. I like the independence in my job. Most of the training I received while working with the tools was hands-on, there is a lot of learning by doing and a lot of self-discipline for self-education involved. Outside of work you’ll often find me at the Street Workout Park or simply relishing life's moments

After completing my commercial apprenticeship, I continued my training in human resources. For over 10 years, I’ve been working in this field, applying my expertise at Evatec in Trübbach since 2023. As an HR Assistant, I oversee the entire administration, with a focus on managing our HR software. My responsibilities include handling entries and exits, certificates, accidents, illnesses, and more. I appreciate the collaborative environment with my colleagues, the diverse tasks, and the autonomy I enjoy at Evatec. Working in HR, I find fulfillment in connecting with people, understanding their needs, and supporting their professional growth. Outside of work, I love traveling and spending weekends exploring different cities and countries.

I studied micro systems engineering at the university for applied science in Buchs. After working as an application engineer, process engineer, and serving as the Manager of Application Engineering in the BU Semi division, I was recently promoted to Head of Evatec Competence Laboratory (ECL). Now, my days are a delicate balancing act—coordinating resources, ensuring smooth operations, and meeting the needs of all stakeholders. However, I thrive on the challenges and cutting-edge technology in the Semi Industry and being able to work in such a high-tech environment in Switzerland is amazing. In my downtime, I indulge my inner nerd. Repairing electronic devices, troubleshooting, and performing delicate micro-soldering—it’s my passion. And once a week, I trade circuits for a squash racket, enjoying friendly matches with colleagues. Family time with my wife and kids adds the perfect balance to my tech-filled days.

I am originally from Mexico where I worked in the automotive industry for 7 years and moved to Switzerland for new career opportunities. I recently joined Evatec as a project leader for special initiatives within the Operational Excellence team. I lead change management efforts and ensure smooth transitions. By coordinating various working groups, I foster cross-functional collaboration. I am passionate about introducing new methodologies and systems to optimize processes, while aligning our work with organizational goals. Evatec's dynamic environment and friendly colleagues make it an exciting place to work. Outside of work, I enjoy connecting with nature - whether it's a walk along the river, a weekend hike, or a leisurely bike ride. And of course, spending time with friends and family over delicious meals and lively gatherings is a must.

I joined the Marketing & Communications (Marcoms) department in November 2022. My educational background includes a commercial apprenticeship, but my passion for creative roles led me to marketing. After an internship as a Marketing Assistant, I knew this was the path I wanted to take. At Evatec, my role is very diverse - I support everything from global exhibitions to advertising, website management, communications, social media, branding, video creation and organizing special events. The variety of my work keeps me engaged and excited every day. One of the things I value most about working at Evatec is the freedom and trust my team has given me. Working with colleagues from all over the world is incredibly rewarding and it's inspiring to be part of a team that supports each other and works towards common goals. Travelling for work is another exciting aspect of my role. I occasionally get the opportunity to attend exhibitions and conferences, where I help with our booth and network with industry professionals. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time outdoors with friends and family and travelling to sunny destinations.

I'm originally from Shanghai, China, and I have been residing in Switzerland for over 15 years. I hold a Ph.D. in Physics from EPFL in Lausanne, which I completed in 2015. Following my graduation, I relocated to the eastern part of Switzerland to embark on my industrial career in the field of semiconductors. After 5 years in Product Marketing at Evatec AG, I’m excited to step into a new role as Senior Strategic Marketing Manager starting September 2025. In this position, I’ll support the Evatec Group and CMO organization in driving strategic initiatives, market intelligence, and business development to strengthen our long-term market position, competitiveness, and growth. I greatly value the youthful, dynamic, and multicultural environment at Evatec. Regardless of the challenges presented by our projects, we consistently achieve success through the dedication of my colleagues and our commitment to exceptional teamwork.

Since 2022, I've been working as an application engineer at Evatec. My tasks are to check if the hardware, software and processes of the CLUSTERLINE® 200 tools meet the customer specifications. Before my career at Evatec, I did an apprenticeship as automatician and then proceeded to get the bachelor's degree in System technology with major in Micro technology at the NTB (now OST). Evatec is my first employer in the thin film and semiconductor industry, and has provided me with hands-on experience and exciting challenges. I've also gained insights into potential new projects and innovations by assisting process engineers. Working at Evatec offers great time management freedom and a supportive environment, with exceptional professionalism and strong relationships with managers and coworkers. Traveling is part of the job, with opportunities to conduct tests at our headquarters in Trübbach and customer sites. I've traveled to Singapore and China, with more destinations on the horizon. If you're looking for a dynamic and supportive workplace, Evatec is the place to be!

I work as a Process System Specialist (PSS) in the cleanrooms at our Trübbach site. My responsibilities include maintaining and modifying laboratory equipment to ensure it is ready for new developments. I am also responsible for monitoring laboratory safety when working with the equipment and the process gases used. I have been part of Evatec since December 2021, after completing my Master's degree in Photonic Engineering. Working as a PSS gives me the opportunity to acquire in-depth expertise and build broad, cross-system competencies. The strong exchange within the team plays a key role in helping us grow and develop together. The technological challenges of our advancing society motivate me every day to support in-house product development in the best possible way. I am particularly fascinated by the development of process-capable systems for piezo materials – a promising and exciting field of work. In my free time, I enjoy playing sports, volunteering a club, and spending time in nature at our beautiful location in the Rhine Valley.

Since April 2022, I’ve been working at Evatec as Head of Logistics and Order Processing. My focus is on designing efficient logistics processes and ensuring reliable delivery times – both internally and for our customers. In a fast-changing global supply chain environment, I enjoy developing smart solutions and driving improvements with my team. With a strong background in logistics and leadership, I’ve managed various projects and completed advanced training – most recently as a certified logistics manager (NDS HF). What I really appreciate about Evatec is the strong team spirit and our “Du” culture. Even though we’re a global company, people know each other, and the flat hierarchies allow for quick decisions and close collaboration. I also value our modern tools and systems, which help us stay ahead. Outside of work, I recharge through sports – either at the gym or occasionally on the football field. But most of all, I enjoy spending time with my family, who give me the energy I need to face new challenges.
