2 years and 4 months, Oct 2013 - Jan 2016
Domain Lead Geometry
ESI Group
I conceived and consolidated the vision and roadmap of the Geometry Domain across the different business units, I designed and led the implementation of novel software components for virtual prototyping, and I managed the development of engineers associated to the Domain.
I led the scientific and technological development of the Competence Center, I defined its strategic positioning and the research roadmap, I planned and administered the finances, I restructured the internal organization, and I accompanied the career development of the researchers.
I initiated and acquired new research funding, I led and managed research projects at German and European level for geometry processing, 3D simulation, and 3D visualization technology, and I represented the Competence Center at national and international events.
I specified, designed and developed innovative and technological solutions for German and European research projects, I led and coordinated the evolution of the groups “Geometric Modeling” and “Interactive Simulation”, and I contributed to the preparation of research proposals.
