<\/p>\nEven during my dual study programme in Computer Science, I became aware of White Duck\u2014among other things through a lecturer who had worked there. I also gained initial insights during an AI hackathon. This made it clear early on that this combination of technology, innovation, and hands-on practice is exactly what appeals to me\u2014and I am all the more pleased to now be part of the team myself. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\nAs a Software Engineer, I primarily develop in C#\/.NET and Python and focus on advancing and optimising complex, long-established systems. I find the challenge of understanding existing structures and improving them sustainably particularly exciting\u2014whether through clean architecture, automation, or the use of modern technologies such as CI\/CD and AI-assisted tools.<\/p>\n

Technology Meets Culture<\/h2>\n
Alongside my Computer Science studies, I completed a bachelor\u2019s degree in Empirical Cultural Studies. This combination continues to shape my perspective on software to this day: I do not think only in terms of systems and technologies, but also in terms of their use, context, and impact. Especially in complex projects, this interdisciplinary approach helps me understand and develop technical solutions more holistically. <\/p>\n
What Drives Me<\/h2>\n
I am motivated to implement things not only functionally, but in a truly well-thought-out way. For me, good software is created where technology, structure, and clarity come together\u2014and where solutions remain viable in the long term. I am particularly interested in topics around artificial intelligence, software quality, and how they interact. <\/p>\n
Anything Else?<\/h2>\n
Outside of work, I am currently learning Japanese (approx. A2 level) and enjoy engaging with language and culture. In my free time, I like going to concerts and trade fairs, travelling, or building PCs. I have also been collecting Pok\u00e9mon cards for years\u2014a hobby that has stayed with me to this day. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
