Er und Patrick erleben in einem Pappkarton die tollsten Geschichten und haben Spaß ohne Ende. Thaddäus sitzt nur griesgrämig daneben und kann will es gar nicht wahrhaben – bis er es am Ende auch probiert. 🤩

Mich treibt das an. Ich sehe in Kundenwünschen nicht nur leidige Anforderungen sondern freue mich auf die Herausforderung der Umsetzung. Und manchmal braucht es eben dazu etwas Fantasie zum »Um-die-Ecke« denken.

Seit April '22 ist die Ukulele ein fester Bestandteil meiner Freizeit. Auch meine Arbeitskollegen beglücke ich mit Geburtstagsständchen. 🎶

Als Principal bei der PRODATO unterstütze ich unsere Kunden mit wunderschönen Reports (Jaspersoft), modernen Datenbanktechnologien (Couchbase – auch als Managed Service) und moderner Datenvirtualisierung (Denodo).
Und das große Ganze habe ich natürlich auch im Blick.

Zuvor war ich wissenschaftlicher Assistent am Lehrstuhl für Informatik 6 (Datenmanagement) an der Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU). Ich promovierte dort zum Thema »Datenqualität für Testdaten — Eine Nutzbarkeitsanalyse für Testdatensammlungen«.
