My name is Daniel and I'm a Master's Student at TU Wien and working as an SDE Intern at Amazon. I'm a passionate nature lover🌳, socializer🥳, interrailer🚄, historian📔, and lover of the Austrian Coffee House culture☕.
I study Software Engineering & Internet Computing. I'm interested in building larger Software which faces challenges in terms of e.g. availability, scalability and security. However I'm not only interested in Software Engineering & Distributed Systems, but also into several aspects of Business Informatics and lately also Machine Learning. After a university project in the area of Cloud Native Development, I am getting more excited about Serverless Computing and Cloud Native technologies in general. This is also where my internship at Amazon comes in handy.
Recently I had the pleasure to do an exchange semester at EPFL (in German: ETH Lausanne) in Switzerland (Lausanne). I'm exceptionally grateful for this experience since I consider Lausanne as one of the most beautiful places (Nature & University Campus, proof) I have ever seen. I am also proud about successfully finishing all of my 29 Crédits there since it is known to be one of the best universities for computer science in all of Europe. Anyways, I can highly recommend that place if you have a chance to visit!
Prior to my current Master's I finished my Bachelor's at Hagenberg Campus (University of Applied Sciences Upper Austria) after which I worked in the area of website and web application development.
As of Summer 2024, I am currently working as an SDE Intern at Amazon in Madrid. Since this has been a major professional goal of mine for the last 2 years, I decided to stay there for 6 months and skip one semester of university courses. Besides my internship I have gained 3.5 years of professional experience in several larger & smaller IT-companies. After interning at the public company MicroFocus (now opentext) and a 6-month internship at Dynatrace in Barcelona I wanted to pursue a gap year in the smaller company elements and gain work experience instead of immediately continuing with a Master's Degree. Due to the COVID-Outbreak I adapted this plan and relocated to beautiful Vienna, where I continued my path as a Fullstack Developer at Verdino and then transitioned back to academia with my current Master's programme. Waiting patiently for great opportunities to rise definately paid off!
