MVTec Software GmbH, Munich, is expanding its team. Since Sept. 1, Christoph Wagner has been responsible for growing the company's embedded vision business. As the new product and business development manager, he will work to further increase MVTec's presence in the international embedded vision market. The mechanical engineer and certified business administrator has extensive expertise in machine vision. He has also gained more than 10 years of experience in product management and technical support, as well as research and development.
Previously, Wagner worked primarily on the hardware side, in particular in the area of 3D vision. Before joining MVTec, he was employed at wenglorMEL GmbH as a technical support manager and product manager for 2D and 3D profile sensors (optoelectronic sensors). Before that, Wagner worked at SmartRay GmbH, where he held various positions in customer support, order processing and project management of customer-specific applications, as well as in research and development.
Wagner said: "I very much look forward to joining the leading manufacturer in the market for standard machine vision software. As part of this work, I will be able to purposefully combine my machine vision expertise with my knowledge in the area of hardware development. I am eager to help actively and profitably strengthen the embedded vision technology field, which is equally important for both customers and MVTec, and to broaden MVTec's presence in this international growth market."
