With more than 35 years of experience in mechanical engineering, automation technology, and international industrial projects, he combines technical depth with operational execution expertise.
The focus lies on technical due diligence, industrial integration, automation strategies, and technical risk assessment — particularly where technical decisions have direct economic impact.
Experience & Background
Alexander Girkinger has led and supported more than 160 national and international projects — ranging from automation solutions and industrial facilities to complex restructurings and technical evaluation processes.
