General

I recently graduated with a bachelor's degree in Business Information Systems at the University of applied Sciences Bremerhaven and now I'm starting as a quality manager in the section of software development at CONTACT Software GmbH. During my study, I have been working at the Alfred-Wegener-Institute at the department "Dynamics of Paleoclimate" as a research assistant for more than two years.

CONTACT Software GmbH (since January 2023)

I have now started a position as quality manager in the software development department at CONTACT Software. As part of the QA-Team, I support the software development teams and processes of our company by providing tools and methods for CI/CD, DevOps, managing Kubernetes cluster and much more.

Alfred-Wegener-Institute for Polar and Marine Research (September 2020 - January 2023)

During my work at the Alfred-Wegener-Institute I analyze data from different climate models like the AWI-ESM and from the CMIP6 series. The goals of these studies are the qualification as well as the validation of those models. Lately I have been dealing a lot with the topic of bias correction, as I wrote my bachelor thesis in cooperation with the Alfred-Wegener-Institute. It is titled: "The influence of bias corrections on variability, distribution and correlation of temperatures compared to observed and modeled climate data in Europe" and can be viewed here.

Over time, a number of websites with learning content on various scientific topics have also been created, which are now hosted by AWI and serve as teaching material for lectures, events and for the simplified presentation of scientific contexts. These can be found on my GitHub profile.

In January 2023 I submitted a technical paper in which I present and validate the algorithms I've implemented to adjust and minimize bias, so that they can be used in a referencable way for scientific research (see more). This paper is about the command-line tool BiasAdjustCXX and will be published at the journal "SoftwareX".

AI-Lab Bremerhaven (October 2021 - June 2022)

Together with two other students I worked as a research assistant at the AI-Lab Bremerhaven. This working relationship arose through a cooperation with our bachelor project. There we are implemented an application for the robot Pepper, which collects information about customers and conversation partners. This data is then stored via our own web interface and evaluated evaluated by different algorithms. In addition, we have presented progress to the public at various events in order to demonstrate the topic of artificial intelligence in practice.

Interests and private Projects

I am particularly interested in data analysis and web development. I also find trading cryptocurrencies particularly appealing. I have developed algorithms that trades automatically for me and thus builds up a passive income. It almost doesn't matter, whether the prices are falling or rising, because this trading bot is based on a mixture of a infinity grid and swing trading strategy.
I have also tried to build a web application for the former algorithm, where customers can log in and run it on their portfolio. So far, however, I do not have the time to deal with scalable systems and virtual machines. But this is still in progress. Some of my projects are listed here and most of my public stuff can be found on GitHub.

Currently I am actively developing the web store Wool Wanted. This web application is build to offer knitwear made by my mom.

Besides programming, I'm interested in skateboarding and I like science fiction books, especially those from the Metro and Bob series.

Future Plans

Where do I see myself in 5 years? I don't know exactly yet, but I hope that I can make a positive difference in the world with my work.
