Background

About Simone Schicktanz

I thought I could be a great coder. Turns out, not so much! Instead of struggling with complex code, I started advocating for bringing experienced developers onto a project to build what I envisioned. That's when I realized I could combine my passion for microscopic imaging with software development to create solutions that help others make new discoveries. I get a real thrill out of solving problems and find that there's no better reward than seeing a product you've poured so much time and energy into finally come to life. Throughout my career, I've had the pleasure of working on several challenging and innovative projects. Key Achievements: Generated 10x revenue increase through strategic product portfolio management and market expansion Achieved 30% revenue growth and CEO Award through strategic go-to-market execution Personal Interests: When I'm not working, I explore 3D printing for personal applications—whether it's fixing broken things, organizing my tools, or printing fun toys.
