Meet The Engineer Who Reads Both the Manual and the Room

Most mechanical engineers speak fluent machine, but our new Chief Operating Officer is happily bilingual. As someone who’s just as passionate about human potential as he is about our next machining center, he knows that cutting-edge technology is only as good as the team operating it.

Hi Stephan! What’s the first thing you do when you arrive at work?

I immediately get a clear overview of our daily resources and upcoming challenges so I can best support the production team.

What’s something you can’t stop talking about regarding your profession?

The unique opportunity to combine my technical background with a genuine interest in human personalities and capabilities. It usually takes form in finding the sweet spot where a new piece of technology perfectly amplifies the talent of the person operating it.

Why Keymet?

Because winning in a ruthless global market requires world-class tech and world-class people, and Keymet happily invests in both. Also, having the entire production chain is great for the clients and made the decision even easier.

What’s a fact about you that we definitely can’t find on LinkedIn?

I can navigate a map of Sweden better than my native Finland. It’s thanks to a lifetime of ski trips and traveling the sunny West Coast, which is a tradition I still maintain with my wife and family.
