About me

whoami & what i do

I'm a fullstack engineer and DevOps enthusiast based in Berlin. Right now I'm finishing my M.Sc. in Industrial Engineering & IT at TU Berlin and working as a DevOps Engineer at Capgemini. Most of what I do sits between software and infrastructure: AWS EKS migrations with Terraform, Python automation, full-stack tooling. Before any of that I spent six months on a sailing ship, mentoring students and helping with microplastic research. That trip is still why I prefer working on whole systems instead of single features.
