In 2008, I had worked at IBM R&D in Boeblingen and developed a user interface. It was part of a successful IBM Smarter Planet solution and is used for the new IBM technology DB2 BLU.

The Lab used Scrum to develop software and put much emphasis onto automation of tests. I am therefore very familiar with agile methods and these were part of my later written dissertation at IBM in 2009.

My thesis described the realization of a Web Application with focus on Application Architecture, User Centered Design and Agile Software Development.

After university I worked for five months as a Sales Specialist for IBM Ireland and gain experience in international sales and IBM product portfolio.

In late 2010, I came back to IBM Germany and I was established until late 2011 as an Application Consultant in Retail industry.

Arround 2012 I worked at IBM Financial Service along with banks and insurance companies to made them SEPA ready.

As a Consultant I was invited to customer workshops and I supported IBM to define the enterprise architecture of the clients.

In 2013 I gained client responsibilities for two large state banks. I was responsible for the maintenance of IBM SEPA solution and I supervised Go-Lives of large IBM clients.

Since 2014 I'm working in the Public industry and I launched a central booking system to manage German 'Riester' contracts.

Scrum and Agile Method's chase me from beginning and I still love to work with them!
