Professional Profile

I am a freelance English–German technical translator with a degree in Mechanical Engineering and more than 25 years of experience in technical translation and proofreading.

Alongside my translation work, I spent over twenty years in engineering roles within the automotive industry, covering manufacturing engineering, production planning, industrial automation and project management. This practical background helps me understand technical documentation from an engineer's perspective rather than from a purely linguistic one.

Today, I mainly translate operating manuals, service documentation, technical specifications, user documentation and other engineering-related texts.

Areas of Specialisation

Mechanical Engineering • Manufacturing & Industrial Equipment • Automation & Robotics • Automotive • Defence & Military Technology • Renewable Energy • Medical Devices & Healthcare Technology • Mechatronics & Electronics • Technical Documentation • IT & Telecommunications • Aviation & Aerospace

Engineering Background

My engineering career included manufacturing engineering, production planning, product and process development, CAD-supported engineering, automation projects and technical project management.

Working in these fields for many years allows me to understand technical terminology, production processes and engineering concepts without having to research the basics first.

Additional Information

I have worked professionally with both English and German throughout my career and translate confidently in both language directions.

My aim is to build long-term relationships with clients by delivering technically accurate translations, consistent terminology, clear communication and reliable on-time delivery.
