During my 4 years as a product manager for online services at Audi connect, I have built a strong expertise in the automotive market and the specific requirements for online functionalities. but also the hurdles of the industry. Therefore, I was glad to join the Software company of the VW Group, CARIAD, when it was founded in July 2020. in my new position as Senior Product owner within the AppStore team, I have the goal to enable a digital plattform which excites customers and developers by offering a fleixble way to integrate 3rd party apps into cars via Android.
