Leon Gasteiger
@leongasteiger
M.Sc. Biodata Science student focused on automation, analytics, and software.
What I'm looking for
I am a motivated M.Sc. Biodata Science student with strong interests in software, automation, and analytical work, combining formal training in statistical modeling with hands-on scripting and process automation using Python and R. I have practical experience in data management, visualization (ggplot2, seaborn), and building reproducible analyses from my B.Sc. thesis and advanced workshops.
I actively pursue self-directed learning in IT and have completed focused workshops in mixed models, Python automation, and interactive analytics; I aim to enter the IT industry and develop long-term specialization in analytics, automation, and software-driven solutions.
