Technical and commercial risk assessment for an investment project in the hardware sector (scaling potential, liability risks, operational processes) Process consulting for two SMEs in the engineering environment, with a focus on workflow digitization and PLM

• Review and assessment of the existing situation
• Identification and definition of implementation measures to close existing gaps

• Plant planning in conveyor technology
• Engineering and design of conveyor systems for the automotive industry / battery transport
• Software, CAD: AutoCAD Inventor 2019 3D + Vault

I work as managing director – organization and active development engineer

Recently completed or nearing completion (2023, 2024):

• Projects in the field of wafer production at Hittec Prontor GmbH (apertures for ZEISS SMT GmbH)
• Micromanipulator concepts with flexure joints for ZEISS SMT, arranged through HAYS AG)
• EVE Innovativ GmbH (combined heat and power plants)
• Kraftblock GmbH, (renewable energy storage)
• CAE Consulting Eng. GmbH, European patent for hybrid robot, market development
• TQ Systems GmbH (gearbox technology)

CE is a supplier of development services in the broad field of mechanical engineering. 30 completed projects in the D-A-CH region. Development and patent exploitation company for R&D, products, cutting and welding robots, conveyor technology ... etc.

My most important results:

• Small selection - results of research and development activities led to the international patent application for cutting and welding robots and to the German patent application for the rotary lifting hanger as well as the spherical joint for combining 3 rods at one point for the parallel kinematics robot, push chain, own European patent for hybrid robot, combustion engines

• In this role, I led a funded development and prototyping project with an external partner.
• I structured processes for schedule, budget and risk management.
• I coordinated meetings and reports with all parties involved.
• I systematically prepared the next project phases through to piloting and planned scaling.

UEF 3.0 · Semantic Government Overlay (SGO) · Autonomous Systems (UAS / dual use)

• Designed: Semantic Government Overlay (SGO) – AI-guided administration without replacing existing specialist procedures. Read-only semantic layer over registers and specialist processes based on the Federal Information Management (FIM). Decision authority remains with the case worker (architecture principle).
• Developed: Reference architecture with source-backed, derived statements (Executable Ontologies OWL/RDF/SHACL). Technically guaranteed purpose limitation and no-write-path principle in specialist data – auditable, without a central data pool.
• Anchored: Regulation as a design principle: EU AI Act (high-risk obligations for public-sector AI, fundamental rights impact assessment under Art. 27), GDPR, NIS2, and administrative automation limits (§ 35a VwVfG, § 31a SGB X) as technical control points in the architecture.
• Created: Methodical tool for pilot organizations: data pipeline assessment (phase 0), compliance blueprint, and management summary as a decision-ready package for public administration.
• Specified: UEF 3.0 as a successor architecture to TOGAF – decision paper, canonical ontology, six-layer architecture, read/actuate boundary, federation registry, terminology concordance, and release delta as a closed specification status.
• Architected: AI-native mission OS for autonomous UAS and ground robotics as a tactical layer on top of a separately approved autopilot. Run-time assurance according to ASTM F3269-21 (Simplex pattern): the verified safety controller keeps authority, the AI function provides suggestions.
• Designed: Three-tier architecture – Tier 0 autopilot with 650 Hz flight control on RTOS, Tier 1 AI OS with semantic world model and multi-agent cluster, Tier 2 swarm and ground mesh. Zenoh as the primary fabric, MAVLink as the only authenticated command path (single writer). Result: graceful degradation – loss of the mission, not of the aircraft.
• Secured: Two-gate chain on the read/actuate boundary – governance gate (can-question: AI Act risk class per actuation, enforced human oversight under Art. 14, immutable log) before the RTA safety monitor (is-it-correct question: flight envelope, geofence, energy reserve) with revert to the baseline controller.
• Anchored: Dual-use architecture with common core and build-time fork instead of runtime switch. Three separate legal levels: civil variant – UAS under the EASA Basic Regulation (EU) 2018/1139 with the limited applicability under Art. 2(2) of the AI Act, ground robotics under the Machinery Regulation 2023/1230 with the full high-risk obligation chain, Cyber Resilience Act for both; unarmed carrier variant as defense material under AWG/AWV and Dual-Use Regulation 2021/821 (BAFA approval); armed variant under KrWaffKontrG. Each variant lives under exactly one dominant legal regime. Evidence base: AI BOM, SBOM, and complete data lineage.
• Analyzed: System analysis and realignment of grown engineering system landscapes. Approach concept for consolidation without migration – semantic layer over the existing sources instead of data transfer. Result: decision-ready implementation concept including an evaluation model for the target architecture.

The project covered the introduction of SAP S4HANA including EWM. The customer manufactures tools for the international market, with 300 production orders and 2,000 shipments to be processed every day. The project started with the "Explore phase," where the target business and SAP processes were defined, and ended with reaching the productivity goals with S4HANA. My role was Key User Trainer and optimizing the live processes.
