In his new role, Matthias Hohenleutner will oversee manufacturing operations, production planning, and manufacturing engineering. He will also be responsible for further integrating these areas into the Toptica Group. “With his technical expertise, in-depth knowledge of our production processes, and strong leadership, Matthias is ideally suited to guide our production into the future,” said Dr. Mathias Schindler, COO and Member of the Executive Board.

Matthias joined Toptica in 2016 as a project manager in R&D, focusing on frequency comb technologies. In 2018, he was promoted to lead the group responsible for custom-built ultrafast systems and laser reference solutions. By collaborating closely with business units and R&D, he successfully built and led a high-performing team.

With Dr. Matthias Hohenleutner taking on operational responsibility for production, Dr. Mathias Schindler will focus more strongly on strategic initiatives. By stepping back from day-to-day operations, he will concentrate on strengthening Toptica’s global competitiveness and advancing efficiency along the value chain. This division of responsibilities ensures both continuity in production excellence and a sharper focus on long-term growth.

Toptica Photonics welcomes the new VP Production and thanked Dr. Mathias Schindler for nearly a decade of his leadership in this role. “His dedication and vision have been instrumental in shaping Toptica’s manufacturing excellence,” said Dr. Wilhelm Kaenders, Founder and CTO of Toptica Photonics SE. “We are excited to see Mathias now focus more on the strategic levers of digitalization and automation that will define the next chapter of our industrial growth.”
