I work with technology and research management at a multi national industrial company. This includes strategy and roadmapping for specific products, but also broadly following research trends and networking with universities. I did a phd in theoretical computer science and stumbled into by accident. It is interesting following research but also see it applied and working with business from the ground up. It is a lot of stakeholder management and knowledge dissemination which I enjoy. Lots of internal networking and relations and informal power. Besides job, I am on the board a handful of volunteer organizations or non-profits. Last year I also taught a semester which I missed a lot from academia. I need many different things to keep my interest so the job works well for me.
