About Joerg Schoepp Dipl. Ing.
I’m a results-driven executive with over two decades of leadership in defense, aerospace, and industrial manufacturing. From launching U.S. operations for jet turbine startups to executing $350M+ capital projects for global OEMs, I’ve built a career on transforming complexity into clarity—and strategy into results.My expertise spans multi-site operations, full P&L ownership, Lean Six Sigma deployment, and regulatory compliance under ATF, ITAR, DFARS, and FARS. I’ve led cross-functional teams of 250+, turned around underperforming facilities, and delivered EBITDA growth in high-mix, low-volume environments.Whether I’m building a plant from the ground up, streamlining legacy operations, or interfacing with DoD agencies and prime contractors, I bring transparency, accountability, and relentless execution to every challenge.Let’s connect if you’re looking for leadership that delivers.
