Sello Mankge

I’m a passionate and results-driven engineering professional with over 15 years of experience in electronic systems, technical training, and product support. With a solid foundation in Electronic Engineering and a Master’s in Engineering Management, I specialize in designing and delivering effective training programs, supporting advanced defense and aerospace systems, and collaborating across multidisciplinary teams. I thrive in environments where technical excellence and clear communication drive performance, and I’m dedicated to continuous learning and professional growth.

I am an experienced electronic engineering professional with a strong background in defense and aerospace systems. Over the past 20 years, I have held progressive roles in technical training, product support, system integration, and testing. I currently serve as a Product Technical Trainer at Hensoldt Optronics, where I design and deliver training solutions and develop technical documentation for advanced optical and sensor systems.

My previous roles include Engineering Technician at Denel Dynamics, where I supported missile systems integration and testing, and technical positions at Siemens and Saab Avitronics, focusing on assembly, integration, and repair of electronic systems. I bring deep technical knowledge, hands-on problem-solving skills, and a proven ability to communicate complex concepts effectively across stakeholders.

I hold a Master of Engineering in Engineering Management from the University of Pretoria (2024), equipping me with strategic and operational leadership skills in technical environments. I also earned a Master of Science in Electronic Engineering from the University of KwaZulu-Natal (2021), providing deep technical expertise in advanced electronic systems. My foundational studies include a BTech and National Diploma in Electronic Engineering from Tshwane University of Technology, establishing strong practical and theoretical grounding in the field.
