April - December 2025
Researcher at the Technical University in Munich, Germany.
I analyzed worst-case scenarios of complex control algorithms in aeronautics.
My objective was to identify critical combinations of control inputs that lead to dangerous situations and provide the basis for optimal responses.
To achieve this, I used deep reinforcement learning algorithms to explore the problem space and find these situations.

February - October 2020
Student assistant at Leibniz Supercomputing Centre in Munich, Germany.
Worked on the planning, implementation, support and documentation of a Kubernetes as a Service system.
This included creating Ansible playbooks and CI pipelines for installation and configuration of the required components and the evaluation of different Container Network Interfaces for the Cluster.

April - May 2019
Intern at BMW Group in Munich, Germany.
I wrote custom software in Java to translate UML models into another modeling language (Franca Plus), including defining and documenting both models and how they should be transformed.
This software is now in use at BMW.

March - April 2016
Internship at IntraFind Software AG (Germany), a company specializing in search for enterprises and content analytics.
The software is used to index internal corporate documents, analyzing and transform the information for better information retrieval.
This enables better semantic search with a high degree of customizability.
My task was to implement and extend custom search functions and content analysis software.
The work was done in Java, with Elasticsearch and Lucene.
