About

A translator with an engineering background

Arnd Rothe, mechanical engineer and technical translator

I am a mechanical engineer and have worked as a freelance technical translator for more than 20 years. Before becoming a translator, I spent approximately ten years working as an engineer in various technical fields.

That experience still shapes the way I translate today. I try to understand what the component does, how the process works and what a technical term means in its specific context.
