this dude was probably peddling 'farfagnewgen' or 'knocwurst' whatever in Bavaria at that time
Pfeiffer was working for TI in germany when CPQ was founded. Nearly all of the original CPQ employees were from TI. He was one of the earliest European employees and joined the company a few months after it was founded. He was responsible for building the highly successful European CPQ organization (you know, the one that still out-sells Dell by more than 2 to 1 in Europe). He was brought in to the houston management by Ben Rosen (who was the guy who actually funded the CPQ startup - he is chairman of the CPQ board and always has been). Pfeiffer shared the top spot with Rod Cannion for a while, then Rosen booted Cannion when Cannion could not get costs under control.

So Pfeiffer is a CPQ original, not quite a founder but still in from near the beginning.
