Hard work pays off โ€“ grateful & excited for whatโ€™s next!

Thrilled to announce my promotion to Senior Staff Expert at ALDI DX! ๐Ÿš€

Great quality at the best price โœจ โ€“ how do I deliver on the ALDI promise? ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค“

Re-joining ALDI from academia as part of DXโ€™s Data & Analytics endeavors has been an exciting journeyโ€”and it sure never gets boring! I love our cross-functional agile setup ๐Ÿค, continuous learning ๐Ÿ“š, and adaptability ๐Ÿ”€ pushing boundaries with a can-do attitude.


A bit of everything, please: translation from and to the business, data science, GenAI, SQL magic, engineering, architecture, testing, and QAโ€”whether itโ€™s for streamlining logistics ๐Ÿšš, improving marketing efforts ๐Ÿ“Š, or empowering buying as a frontrunner ๐Ÿ›๏ธ. Super exciting and fun, all while keeping a sharp focus on the business perspective and tangible benefits. ๐Ÿ”Ž

We unlock the power of data to deliver actionable insights and solutions, creating real impact across ALDIโ€™s value chain. This ties in with our core valuesโ€”simplicity, consistency, and responsibilityโ€”keeping operations lean, insights sharp, and decisions data-driven, making all customers feel our work in their pockets each and every day. โšก
