This week we're speaking to Dr Joachim Fox, the director of Safety and Cybersecurity at ZF Group.
Joachim has had a brilliant career, spanning nearly 20 years. After gaining a PhD in Robotics and Mathematics, Joachim joined the sector as a manager of control engineering at Siemens. This saw him leading a small team of engineers, as they worked on an automotive brake-by-wire system, electrical motors, and adaptive belt load limiters.
In his current role at ZF Group, Joachim has introduced a completely digitalised / governance safety system which helps ZF group see the complete project overview and it’s used across all sectors of the company, such as: Marines, Renewables, Automotive, Aerospace etc.
Thanks to having so much hands on experience, Joachim gives some fantastic advice for young engineers such as the importance of continuously learning, why you should follow your passion, and how to identify when it’s a good time to switch roles.
