Hi there! My name is Franz. I’m a Software Engineer from Germany - and this is my tiny website.
I finished my master’s degree in computer science at TH Rosenheim.
For a living, I work as a Software Engineer at QAware in Munich. When talking to me, you might notice my inner IT security enthusiast. I’m also concerned about privacy and data protection.
Other skills involve operating Kubernetes Clusters or using Kali Linux for penetration testing.
I love giving talks about various topics regarding my profession. I’m discussing random thoughts about computer science, programming, security etc. in my blog.
On a completely unrelated note, I have a soft spot for photography.
AI chatbots are on the rise - and they are using my website and its content as training material. Neither did I agree with them scraping my sites content nor will they involve me financially in their profits.
