In his role, Marcel combines technical expertise with strategic project management to develop modern and efficient software solutions. Together with his team, he actively shapes the digital future of the automotive industry.
A Department Where Technology Meets Strategy
In the Software Development domain, Marcel has established a structure that considers both technical details and the strategic aspects of project management. His team is divided into two specialized groups: The Developer Community, focusing on creating new features and further enhancing existing systems, as well as the the Project Management Community, ensuring that projects are efficient and goal-oriented.
Both groups meet on a biweekly basis to discuss specific topics, sharpen knowledge, and plan all next steps. Their core activities include:
- Knowledge Building: Promoting expertise and technical know-how.
- Templates and Best Practices: Developing standardized templates and defining efficient work methods.
- Process Optimization: Continuously improving workflows to address both technical and organizational challenges.
A Broad Range of Software Development Subjects
Marcel and his team work on a wide variety of projects, including the development of software solutions, such as web applications, mobile apps, and standard software. Application management is the second pilar of the teams’ activities, covering the coordination, control, and maintenance of software solutions during development and in ongoing operations.
Their development approach combines agile methodologies such as Scrum, Kanban, Design Thinking, and SAFe with tried-and-true waterfall methods. Software quality is ensured through efficient, situation-specific test strategies that adhere to ISTQB standards; both within classic and agile setups.
Additionally, the team integrates modern technologies like cloud services (e.g., Azure, AWS) and cutting-edge IT architectures to deliver solutions that are both sustainable and cost-efficient.
Customer Satisfaction at the Core
A central focus for Marcel and his team is working very closely with their clients. Together, they identify requirements and develop solutions that stand out due to cost-efficiency, transparent documentation, maintainability, and high quality.
As Marcel sums it up:
“It’s about combining modern technologies with well-thought-out methodologies to create sustainable and future-proof solutions for our customers.”
