Bio
Andrea Koenigstorfer
Mickael worked for me as French Quality Lead and Project Manager as part of the Global Localization Team in Dell. As part of this role, he reviewed both technical and marketing content for French, ensuring that the delivered quality met the high standards of the stakeholders. He worked proactively with stakeholders on both the eSupport and eCommerce side in identifying and correcting language issues on the Dell Website, ensuring that the applied changes stayed in line with the established style and terminology. Mickael’s sound technical and translation background as well as his open and friendly manner were very helpful in training new translators and reviewers of both internal and virtual teams in the team's translation processes. He was a trusted colleague, always putting team needs in front of personal gain. Despite of all the challenges the team had to face Mickael always remained cheerful and humorous.

I have worked with Mickael for 2 years in Dell in the same team. Mickael has an excellent IT and hardware knowledge which was not only beneficial for his work as a French language lead, but also for the entire team. Mickael has always been happy to share his knowledge and help others out. Mickael has also managed projects and was responsible for the translation query management in Dell. In this role, I found him brilliant in dealing with stakeholders and vendors in multi-cultural and virtual environments. I am happy that in his current position Mickael is managing queries, quality scorecards and multi-language online glossaries for Dell.
