Architecting Resilient Network Systems.
Network Engineer & Communications Engineering Master's Student at TUM.
Specializing in automation, SDN, and programmable infrastructure.
01. Short_Profile
Master's student in Communications Engineering at Technical University of Munich specializing in network automation and programmable infrastructure.
Built production-grade automation systems that dramatically reduce manual configuration overhead across 100+ devices in datacenter lab environments. Expertise spans SDN/P4 programmable switches, infrastructure-as-code workflows, and observability stack design. Strong foundations in network optimization, reliability engineering, and queueing theory.
