Hi. My name is Adam Farkas.
I am a Full Stack Digital PO/PM Nerd.
You happened to land on my humble little place on the internet, built with a few words and some pixels. It mainly consists of random stuff, but might also include deeper thoughts or useful tidbits. You may also find things I’ve been up to or am currently into. Just poke around!

Or catch me on LinkedIn or XING … though honestly, I'm barely ever there because of … reasons. Ultimately, that's why this website exists!
Career
2015—date
Head of Marketing Technology @ WALTER GROUP
At WALTER GROUP, as part of an awesome team of three, I am in charge of the ongoing, marketing-oriented development of all digital marketing applications and websites. Heavily focusing on cross-departmental implementations as lead product owner (PO), as well as requirements, implementation, and delivery management (PM). I have a strong customer-centric approach, and in addition to that, I pay close attention to traditional stakeholders, including users, business units, and developers.
2011—2015
Marketing & Graphics Manager @ MLINE
I started as a graphic designer at MLINE AG, focusing on packaging & advertising material — both print and digital. Due to my interest in marketing, I later additionally worked on e-commerce marketing, newsletter campaigns, and copywriting material.
Education
2014—2016
Technical Product Management (MSc) @ FH Wiener Neustadt
Throughout the course of this degree, I have learned valuable insights into the technical aspects of project management. I have learned and implemented both theoretical and practical methods for project management in month-long projects.

2011—2014
Digital & Mobile Marketing (BA) @ FHWien der WKW
The broad topic of marketing has been condensed into this three-year-long study. Later, heavily focusing on digital and mobile marketing-related topics, I have gained an in-depth look at the best practices from industry experts and by working on real projects.
Bachelor Thesis: iBeacons – Location-based Services 2.0 (2014)
2010—2011
Digital Media Designer @ WIFI Wien
Though graphic design had been a hobby of mine my entire life, I decided to go a step further and take a highly specialized course as a Digital Media Designer to hone my skills. Since then, I love to create corporate designs and logos for fun.
2003—2008
Electronics (Ing.) @ TGM
In my high school years, I focused on integrated circuits and microcontrollers. My interest in programming also kickstarted there. The things I learned back then help me to fix everyday items and let me work on electronics or programming side-projects.
