Sebastian B.
Lead Project Manager Campus Network Segmentation in OT Security @ Schaeffler
About
Driven by a strong passion for digital transformation and its real-world impact, I’ve built my career at the intersection of engineering, technology, and project leadership. Since September 2022, I’ve been working in Operations IT, where I currently lead a strategic initiative in Campus Network Segmentation for OT Security at Schaeffler. My focus is on securing industrial environments by aligning cross-functional teams and implementing segmentation strategies that meet the growing demands of cybersecurity in operational technology. With a foundation in industrial engineering and technical project management, I bring together people, processes, and the right digital tools to enable sustainable and secure outcomes. Prior to joining Operations IT, I spent over three years in the automotive sector, contributing to the development of electric powertrains for Mercedes-Benz’s EQS, EQE, and EQS SUV at Valeo Siemens/Valeo. I’m known for my transparent, collaborative, and structured communication style—and remain deeply curious about emerging technologies that help shape a safer, more efficient future.
