As AIT Software Lead, I am responsible for a team of software engineers working on satellite test scripts, reference databases, and corresponding software tool chains related to all 34 Galileo navigation satellites. In addition, I am the deputy manager of EGSE AIT Software, where my duties encompass team management using agile methods. I am also responsible for a company-wide improvement measure that aims to achieve unification of manufacturing databases over various projects.

My academic career in robotics has left me with a strong desire to advocate all means of technology. As a technology consultant for SALT AND PEPPER, I use this background for the benefit of the clients.

I'm working on the development of a novel type of underwater glider within the Helmholtz Alliance ROBEX, whose aim is to bring together deep sea and space science.
