Bio
CIPRIAN LUCUT
Working for and with Sakthi was one of my career's highlights. His work ethic and leading by example made it so easy to follow and fulfil even the most delicate of the tasks laid ahead by the constantly challenging release into production of the first ever DMD Head Up Display for one of the most prestigious Customers, Lincoln Motor Company. I will always remember how for Sakthi there was never an engineering topic he would not fully understand to the littlest of details, being it of an optics, mechanical, hardware, software or manufacturing nature, and then shoulder by shoulder with the engineering team members he'd follow an issue up all the way till it became an achievement instead of the roadblock it was set to be initially. Versatile confident and always with a positive attitude are just a few of his personality qualities that would make Sakthi suitable for any type of managerial role in any of the technically challenged industries of the 21st century.
