Passionated
It all started with
... a great Christmas present 28 years ago: my first own computer. The performance of this 'marvel of technology' is currently probably surpassed by any better smartwatch, yet this PC was the cornerstone for my way into the digital world of today. With it I learned the basics of a text-based operating system, how to use a mouse and what this Minesweeper was all about.
Since then I am interested in everything that has to do with bits and bytes. The area doesn't matter, from A like Artificial Intelligence over M like Mobile Device Development up to Z like the ZIP-Algorythm.
My professional qualifications
Dream job: software engineer? For me it really is! Today, 20 years after the beginning of the training, I not only have a profound expertise in almost all areas of agile software development, but also in parts of DevSecOps as well as first experiences as a teamlead due to my long-term professional activity.
This know-how has been gained through the implementation and support of a large number of projects as well as my personal interest in realizing them with the help of the latest technologies.
What distinguishes me
An always concentrated and conscientious way of working and the ambition to continuously deliver optimal work results. I value solid communication as well as close cooperation within the team. In addition, my colleagues can rely on me at all times. What's more, I'm motivated, like to familiarize myself quickly with new projects and fields of activity, and am eager to develop professionally.
About me personally
I was born 36 years ago in Augsburg, Germany. I successfully completed my traning as an IT specialist in the field of application development 17 years ago and have been working as a software developer in the field of web technologies ever since.
Besides my professional hobby I also like to spend my free time on the motorcycle or behind the camera. In the latter, I am particularly fond of macro and wildlife photography.
