## About

```text
At Alten GmbH, I developed an AI-powered pipeline that processed drone-captured images with Azure AI Computer Vision and OCR, extracting technical details into structured datasets. I added template-based validation and a Streamlit dashboard so users could review and analyse results.

Earlier, at Alten GmbH and Digiteq Automotive, I implemented and maintained Python-based automated testing for Volkswagen Group automotive projects. I also supported machine learning validation and, on a project for CARIAD China, helped introduce automated testing in an environment previously dependent on manual testing.
