Maurizio Cappone, Business Development Engineer (since 2023)

I always wanted to become a R&D engineer in a famous engineering company. When I was a working student in this field, I saw that experts had revolutionary ideas for the next machine 2.0, however management’s decision was against it. I realized that for having an impact in engineering I need to understand the business side why I started as a BDR at Dive. I learned how engineering managers to CTO’s think and decide. Meanwhile as an AE, I can drive how leading engineering companies adopt new technologies.

Yannick D’Arino, Account Executive (since 2021)

When I was working in a R&D department in the past, I discovered my passion for simulation. In Business Development at Dive, I was able to combine technical expertise with direct industry cooperation, enabling me to actively influence product development and gain a broad understanding of the market. Now, as a Marketing Operations Manager at Dive, I strive to intensify the cooperation between the industry and our team to provide the best solution for our customers.

Melanie Danckert, Marketing Operations Manager (since 2022)

As a working student at Dive I have the opportunities to collaborate with a highly talented and innovative team. From the outset I was entrusted with meaningful responsibilities such as customer interaction that provided a real-life context in which I can apply my academic knowledge and develop practical skills.

Weis, Customer Success Working Student (since 2023)

After years of study and extensive technical training, I noticed I was missing a vital component if I were to be a happy professional, and that was the human component. Working together with other engineers to craft and implement valuable solutions was and is what motivates me. Starting as a BDE and growing towards my SE position has allowed me to work with countless engineers around the globe, enabling them to identify design challenges and guiding them towards valuable solutions.
