Topic: Creation of a Method to Improve the Test Sequence of Variable Vehicle Testing Maneuvers Regarding Testing Effort: • Achievement: Optimized vehicle testing sequences, enhancing efficiency, time management, and cost-effectiveness for calibration and validation activities. • Methodology: Developed a structured testing framework, streamlining test organization. • Efficiency Improvement: Reduced testing runtime by approximately 26% to 33%, positively impacting effort, fuel consumption, and project budget.

•THL Formula student team member in the suspension team planning to perform some dynamic simulations for the suspension system.

I supported the workshop on complex technical issues. Further responsibilities included: • Developing and carrying out training sessions for technicians. • Offering technical consultation to customers. • Inspecting cars for warranty claims. • Managing the DISS report(S) in the ELSA process. • Handling and solving common technical problems in collaboration with Skoda via a technical platform.

I was responsible for maintenance, service and repair of the fleet of vehicles. Specifically, that means that I • Monitored maintenance and repair activities. • Contributed to the diagnosis of complex vehicle failures. • Carried out on-site vehicle testing before and after repair. • Maintained record files and prepared periodic and special reports.

I led a group of technicians to implement periodic and other quick repairs. This included performing test drives for the cars before and after repairs and implementing the final check before delivery to the customer.
