Skills & Expertise – End-to-End Capability for BioPharma, LIMS & Healthcare IT

BioPharma, Life Science, and Healthcare IT – from requirements engineering through software development to project management.

My approach: a holistic perspective – I understand business requirements, develop technical solutions, and help steer projects. All from one source, especially valuable in regulated environments (GxP, CSV).

My Motivation

My focus is on structuring complex environments in order to support sound decisions and move projects forward with clarity.

For me, professional growth does not mean chasing trends, but rather

  • deepening understanding
  • sharing knowledge
  • taking responsibility for sustainable outcomes

I feel closely aligned with the Agile Manifesto . I value collaboration, openness, and continuous development on a professional, personal, and interpersonal level.

My Services

I see software initiatives as end-to-end delivery systems – from structured requirements elicitation and conceptual design through stakeholder alignment to implementation support.

I support organizations with:

  • Requirements engineering and stakeholder alignment
  • Structuring complex issues and defining workable delivery packages
  • Software design and implementation
  • Documentation and decision support to enable manageable projects
  • Effective work in agile as well as regulated environments

Requirements Engineering

For me, the people who use the system are always at the center of software development .

Clear goals from the client matter – but understanding the needs of all stakeholders is what makes the difference.

Analytical skills and interpersonal qualities belong together: asking questions, listening actively, sharing ideas – and discussing them critically when needed, while still keeping the conversation constructive.

Empathy is not just a nice-to-have. It helps make real needs visible and is one of the foundations for getting requirements right.

That has been a personal driver for me for a long time.

And in fact, it was exactly this passion for requirements engineering that ultimately led me into software engineering.

Software Development

I build maintainable, testable software with a clear focus on C# and the .NET ecosystem – from backend services to integrations and tools.

Typical topics:

  • API design (REST), background processing, integration patterns
  • .NET architecture: clean layering, modularization, dependency management
  • Quality: automated tests, refactoring, code reviews, CI-ready workflows
  • Performance & reliability: profiling, pragmatic optimization, robustness
  • Delivery in regulated / governance-heavy environments (traceability & documentation)

Integrations

This part of software development has always been especially fascinating to me. A substantial part of a system’s value comes from how well it can communicate with other systems: distributed data becomes centrally available information.

As digitalization progresses, it has become essential to connect, extract, transfer, and transform information from different subsystems into a usable form. That is the path from “information islands” to a “connected plant”.

My USP: I combine requirements engineering, project management, and technical development in one role — from stakeholder workshops and interface specifications to productive integration.

In regulated environments (GxP, CSV), this combination is especially valuable: requirements are not only understood, but translated directly into workable, validatable solutions.

Industries

These are the industries I have mainly worked in:

  • Biotech, production & QA of a PCR test kit, IPC – digitalization
  • Biopharma, fermentation processes, upstream/downstream in a Process Science context, LabWare LIMS consulting
  • Biotech, focus on synthesis of biopolymers (peptide/DNA), development of a LIMS
  • Healthcare, development work on a hospital information system with various third-party integrations
  • Automotive: development work on a GPS-based rail control solution
  • Legal / contract management: development of a contract generator

LIMS Consulting & Project Management

LIMS projects are complex – they require structured requirements engineering, technical know-how, and an understanding of regulated environments.

With more than 25 years of experience, I support clients as a LIMS consultant, requirements engineer, and project manager in the following areas:

  • LabWare LIMS: v6→v7 migrations, custom frameworks, integrations
  • BioPharma & Healthcare: Process Science, QC/QA, clinical labs, workflow integration
  • Requirements Engineering: IREB/CPRE-certified, stakeholder workshops, traceability
  • System Integration: instruments, ERP, HIS/PACS, REST APIs, OPC/UA
  • GxP & CSV: validation-ready documentation, data integrity (ALCOA+)

From strategic consulting through implementation to successful go-live – one point of contact for all project phases .
