About me

I am Andrea Potúčková, a dedicated and experienced Quality Specialist with over 10 years of professional experience, primarily within the automotive industry. Throughout my career, I have worked for a global corporation, Continental Automotive, where I developed strong skills in quality management, sales, and development. I am highly motivated, stress-resistant, and always strive to deliver precise and accurate work. I am a team player who is also capable of working independently when needed.

I am passionate about identifying and resolving system blockages and failures, particularly within SAP and operational setups. I approach problems holistically to implement immediate, operational, and long-term preventive solutions. I am target-driven and committed to completing tasks thoroughly, regardless of time constraints, and I always aim to contribute positively to my workplace.

I believe effective collaboration is essential, especially in fast-paced environments with massive information flow. I proactively seek ways to improve processes and take responsibility for the solutions I propose. I maintain a positive attitude towards change and respect my superiors, always adopting a ‘can do’ approach and demonstrating loyalty.

My experience includes managing supplier quality, conducting root cause analyses, preparing training materials, and ensuring compliance with quality standards such as IATF 16949. I am proficient in various tools and systems including SAP, Power BI, Office 365, and Operational Data Warehouse databases. I have also been involved in project launches, data maintenance, and customer communication, handling key accounts such as Ford, Toyota, and Mercedes Benz.

In addition to my technical skills, I have experience in office and business management, including team leadership, payroll, recruitment, and administrative tasks. I have taught English at various educational levels and developed testing materials for language proficiency exams. I continuously pursue further education and certifications to enhance my professional capabilities.

I am fluent in English at a C1 level and hold a Master’s degree in English Language and Literature & Technology. I am committed to personal and professional growth and look forward to contributing my skills and experience to a dynamic and challenging work environment.
