Profile

Well-versed Software Engineer by passion and profession. I love working with C/C++, VHDL, FPGAs and Microcontrollers. I am a calm team-player who enjoys deep technical discussions to find the best solution.
Recently discovered joy in Go.
In my free time I ride my mountain bike or explore the full software stack. Some projects:

I am open for almost any exciting challenge.
