HI, I'M BENEDIKT.

I am a Distributed Systems Engineer from Germany.

Born in 1989, after my A-Levels and military service in 2010, I worked for
several years as a freelance software developer, mainly creating web and
database applications in the area of personal management, marketing,
photography, and logistics. After my bachelor thesis in 2014, I started to work
in academia at Chair of Informatics 2 in the Theory of Hybrid Systems Group
headed by Prof. Dr. Ábrahám, where I focussed on the development of control
strategies for hybrid electric vehicles as well as teaching activities. In
September 2015, I started working at the Chair of Communication and Distributed
Systems (COMSYS) in the network architectures group headed by Prof. Dr.-Ing.
Wehrle, where I finished my master thesis in the domain of HTTP/2 in 2018. From
May 2018 until April 2019, I lived in London and work as a Systems Engineer at
Cloudflare. Currently, I am based in Cologne, Germany and work remotely as a
Distributed Systems Engineer.

My interests include: distributed systems, web performance, browser networking,
data-science, internet protocols, it-security and privacy, and evolutionary
algorithms.
