Edward Knoy

Freelance engineering management consultant, aspiring to use my 30+ years experience to help start-ups (both entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs) to develop their ideas into real, robust actions. I have particularly successful in interim management and leadership development at automotive start-ups.

Several different positions in Product Development and Quality over a 30 year career on three different continents (Europe, North and South America). My last position as Chief Engineer of Suspension and Frames was a global one, with a team of 400 engineers across 10 Product Development Centers in 9 different countries on 5 different continents. Global turnover of engineered content was 4.4 billion USD. Also had leadership positions in Ford of Europe Quality and Ford South America Vehicle Engineering.

Started as engineer in training part-time while studying and then developing to the position of East Coast Regional Manager based in Maryland. Grew the east coast business to be a significant portion (nearly 50%) of TIC's turnover.
