Manuel Lindauer began his professional career in 2000 at Fraunhofer IBP, where he helped develop the IMEDAS measurement and control system used throughout the institute. After studying mathematics at LMU Munich, he worked as a research assistant at the Center for Sustainable Building at TU Munich, where he earned his doctorate in 2017. During this time, he worked on and led various research projects on advancing building renovation, increasing energy efficiency, and using renewable energies in buildings. He then developed energy and CO2 analysis methods for strategic maintenance software at CalCon. He has been working as an engineer at FIW since December 2024.
