@andreiachziger
Philosopher and software engineer bridging cognition and technology.
What I'm looking for
As a passionate software engineer with a strong foundation in cognitive science and philosophy, I have dedicated my career to bridging the gap between technology and human cognition. My journey began with a vocational education in computer science, which laid the groundwork for my technical skills. Over the years, I have developed a unique blend of expertise in software development, particularly in iOS applications, while also delving into the philosophical aspects of technology.
My professional experience includes leading the development of an MVP for food recognition at VisioLab GmbH, where I secured venture capital funding through innovative solutions. I have also worked as a software developer at Byteways GmbH, maintaining iOS applications and developing web apps using modern technologies. Currently, I am an independent developer, creating prototypes that integrate IoT and UI design, showcasing my commitment to advancing technology in meaningful ways.
