Hi, my name is Michael Houben.
I'm a passionate developer of Engineering Teams, founder of MACH 8 and hold a PhD in Engineering.
For the past +15 years, I developed my professional career in highly international environments and Fortune 500 Global Engineering Companies, 10 years from a leading position, including 3 as an expat in China.
During this exciting period, I experienced first hand what it takes to grow a Benchmark Engineering Team. A team where trust rules, knowledge flows and grows, and high output and quality astonishes stakeholders.
I look forward to meet you, and help you grow your Engineering Team!
