Currently, I work as a video coding
research engineer at MainConcept in my home town Aachen. The main
aspect of my work is to leverage my deep video coding understanding
to build top notch encoders for various standards. Formerly, I was
working as a software engineer at 23 Technologies pursuing to bring
cloud native software into manufacturing industry. Until February
2022, I was working as a researcher at the Institut für
Nachrichtentechnik RWTH Aachen University. In my research, I focused
on the link between machine learning and state-of-art video coding
technology. Moreover, I am an open-source enthusiast, convinced
Linux user, and tech fan. As an overview I'd like to name my
interests and skills.
Cloud Native Technology
started at 23 Technologies
IMHO Cloud native technology offers great
chances for a sustainable design of many software components
needed by both, society and
industry.
Containers solve all
problems ;-)
Scientific Programming
mastered
since my time at IENT
The programming language itself is of minor
importance here. Performing mathematical operations as simple
and readable in code, is the main goal of scientific
programming.
Programming languages: Python, Matlab,
C++
Linux Configuration
started with my bachelor thesis
I3WM is not making me search for my windows
anymore, my dotfiles are managed by a bare git repository and
fish is a great shell for me.
I
really like trying out new stuff on the commandline
Video Coding and Machine
Learning
started with my
master thesis
Finding entry points for state-of-the-art
machine learning methods into the hybrid video coding scheme
was one of the main aspects of my research.

Tennis and Cycling
since 2016
I'm a sports enthusiast. I play tennis on a
recreational level and really like riding my
roadbike.
