Passion for
Technology and Language

As an experienced and qualified technical translator for the English, German and French languages, I deliver reliable and professional translations of texts from fields such as mechanical engineering and energy technology.

Translations in accordance with the quality standard DIN 2345

I strive to work in accordance with DIN 2345, which is still the best existing quality standard for the performance of translation jobs.

Bound by the BDÜ Code of Professional Conduct

As a member of the German Federal Association of Interpreters and Translators (BDÜ), I am bound by the principles of the association’s own Code of Professional Conduct, which was adopted in 2014 and defines minimum standards for interacting with clients and colleagues, as well as for the way members do their job. It includes the strictest mandatory requirements any professional association for translators and interpreters in Germany demands from its members.
With regard to some aspects, I apply even stricter principles, going beyond the scope of the association’s Code (e.g. no subcontracting of translation work to colleagues without the client’s approval).

Status reports

As an option, you can receive a free status report for larger translation jobs (1,000 lines / 6500 words or more) free of charge well before the final deadline, which includes the text volume translated up to that point, as well as a bilingual glossary containing the keywords of the project and their translations. This allows you to get a clear idea of how the translation project is progressing.

Sample translations

To get a valid impression of my linguistic and technical skills as a translator, you can have samples from your texts translated free of charge before you make a decision on awarding the job. This will lead to no further costs or obligations for you.

Abstracts and summaries of German and French texts

If you do not require the complete translation of a text but just want to know "what it says", a summary can be a cost-efficient alternative.
