Michael Schmidt is a seasoned technology leader with over a decade steering global ERP and manufacturing systems for CSL, combining deep SAP expertise with hands-on oversight of heterogeneous stacks like BPCS, Labware, Trackwise and other GxP-critical applications. He has directed a distributed team of 70 across the Americas, Europe and APAC, delivering stability for critical pharmaceutical systems while driving strategic selection and integration of new software. With 14+ years on SAP landscapes (ECC6, APO, BI, PI/XI, SolMan, GRC, EP) he blends technical breadth with executive decision-making and multimillion-dollar contract negotiation experience. His background in computer science, entrepreneurship and early IS retail work informs a pragmatic, product-focused approach that prioritizes regulatory quality and patient safety. Even in retirement he remains plugged into cloud-native communities (notably Kubernetes/Knative) and open to high-impact opportunities.
