What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, where I can contribute to impactful projects and grow my expertise in product and data science.

I am a results-driven Product and Software Engineer with over two years of experience in building scalable SaaS solutions. My expertise lies in managing full product cycles across the fintech and media domains, where I have successfully bridged the gap between business and technology through data-driven decision-making.

Currently, I am pursuing my M.Sc. in Data and Knowledge Engineering at OVGU Magdeburg, focusing on machine learning and business intelligence. My recent role as Product and Data Strategy Lead at M/S Keshaw Coke allowed me to lead operational analytics and data strategy, significantly improving supply chain decisions through innovative tracking tools.

In my previous positions, I have honed my skills in software development and product management, contributing to various projects that enhanced user experience and operational efficiency. I am eager to leverage my background in product, software, or data science roles to drive impactful results.
