Experience

Experience across intralogistics, automation and industrial project interfaces

Selected work is shown as anonymised project situations. The focus is on recurring material-flow, system-boundary and planning-risk patterns from complex industrial projects.

Snapshot

  • 13+ years in logistics, intralogistics and warehouse automation
  • Founder-led work from Basel for Switzerland, DACH and selected international sites
  • Experience across GMP and validated environments, ESD, dangerous goods, fire protection and sensitive components
  • Technology contexts: ASRS/AKL, shuttles, conveyors, sortation, AMR, palletising, scanning, camera systems and robot-picking discussions
  • System contexts: ERP, SAP EWM, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, WMS, WCS, MES, interfaces, test planning and go-live readiness

Selected project situations

Smart Factory logistics core in Swiss precision manufacturing

Structured the logistics core for a Smart Factory programme: KLT and pallet flows, automated small-parts storage, goods-to-person picking, robot-picking test cases, production supply options, returns, packing, master data and system responsibility.

Materials management interface for a Swiss life-science production building

Translated goods receipt, short-term storage, sampling, dispensing, staging, production handovers, waste flows, GMP zone transitions, labels, status logic and system handovers into planning input for engineering, architecture and operations.

Operator-side automation delivery and acceptance

Supported requirements, supplier comparisons, clarification logs, interface ownership, FAT/SAT/SIT/UAT structure, issue tracking, cutover and hypercare in multi-supplier automation environments.

International operations and scale-up environments

Work in East Africa and other international settings has built practical judgement for sites where infrastructure, local execution partners, training level and growth pressure shape the logistics concept.
