Senior software engineer

7/2025 – offen

I work as an independent software engineer supporting companies with the design and implementation of modern automation systems, real-time software, and intelligent technical solutions.

My work spans the full development cycle from system concept and architecture to implementation, integration, and optimization combining embedded software, computer vision, AI pipelines, and backend services.

Key Responsibilities & Activities
-Development of high-performance software in C++, Python, and C
-Design and implementation of automation and control systems
-Development of ROS2-based robotics and sensor-processing pipelines
-Computer-vision and AI integration (real-time inference, optimization)
-Embedded development on STM32 and similar platforms
-Integration of sensors, cameras, IO modules, and communication interfaces
-GPU acceleration and performance optimization (CUDA, TensorRT)
-Backend services and data pipelines (MQTT, ZeroMQ, Docker)
-Modernization and refactoring of existing or legacy systems
-System testing, documentation, and long-term support

Focus
-Reliable, maintainable, and scalable software
-Practical, production-ready solutions
-Clean architecture and system-level thinking

-Participating in planning, reviewing work results, and helping organize processes
-Contributing to system and software architecture for automation solutions
-Developing device software and visualizations
-Maintaining and extending existing applications on industrial devices
-Working on embedded controllers and IO modules
-Designing and programming embedded PCBs and hardware interfaces
-Building internal tools and applications with modern frameworks
-Implementing communication layers and data exchange between system components
-Modernizing legacy systems and improving maintainability
-Working with industrial protocols and message-based communication

Technologies and areas I worked with:
-C/C++, C#, modern .NET
-Embedded development for controllers
-PCB layout design for IO modules
-Frontends with Angular, React, Avalonia
-Communication via MQTT, AMQP, gRPC, RabbitMQ
-Integration with industrial systems such as Siemens/CODESYS
-Databases and data processing using Entity Framework

-Integrated Fanuc, Epson, and Hirata robotic systems into automated workflows
-Built interfaces between robots, measurement devices, PLC controllers, and production modules
-Connected automation systems with SCADA and ERP platforms
-Worked on communication, data exchange, and interaction between devices on the shop floor
-Supported the creation of internal software standards for repeatable and consistent development
-Contributed to adapting and integrating Japanese automation technologies into European production requirements

Technologies & Tools I Worked With:
-C#, C++, Visual Basic
-Robot programming: Fanuc, Epson, Hirata
-Industrial control systems: CODESYS, Siemens TIA Portal
-Interfaces for SCADA, ERP, automation controllers
-Industrial communication and device-level data handling
-Tools for measurement systems and production modules
