Hey there.

I'm Alex, and I like engineering systems both professionally but also for life.

​

​

​

You probably saw me before in the street or supermarket, and could never imagine what I can do for you :) ​ I'm a straight-talking problem solver, helping both businesses and professionals. I'm not just an engineer, but a real person with a down-to-earth approach. Whether tackling technical issues or home projects, I'm always ready to roll up my sleeves and get the job done. I have a knack for seeing the bigger picture and providing insightful guidance. When not solving complex engineering challenges, you can find me tinkering at home with my mischievous cat Beerus. People often seek my advice, but I'm no different from anyone else. I approach life with a straightforward, practical mindset, always eager to lend a helping hand. I'm just a regular guy who loves solving life's puzzles, whether at work or in my personal time. Systems Magician

My Story

From Test Engineer to Systems Engineering Pioneer and Technical Leader

​

Having started my career as a Test Engineer at SiemensVDO Automotive, I quickly discovered a passion for innovation. I reduced a two-week testing process to just 20 minutes with an automated tool, demonstrating my early aptitude for problem-solving.

​

Over the years, I've held roles in Test Management and Systems Engineering, spearheading the establishment of new departments and advancing strategic initiatives. My experience spans automotive, aerospace, and technology sectors, where I've led cross-functional teams and delivered complex projects.

​

Today, as a leader at Horiba MIRA, I'm driving cutting-edge technology in Connected Autonomous Vehicles and mentor young engineers. My journey has been one of continuous learning and growth, fuelled by a relentless pursuit of excellence.

​

Fluent in Engineering! I am a certified Seasoned Systems Engineer (INCOSE CSEP) with 20+ years’ experience in the automotive industry working with leading international companies such as Jaguar/Land Rover, Continental Automotive and GE Aviation.

​

This is a time to reflect and give back, helping others to learn and benefit from my experience.

​

What you can expect from me

​

I'm on a sustained mission to self-improve while pulling up others too and getting things done in an effective manner.
