I work as embedded software engineer for [Intel Mobile GmbH], a subsidiary of the Intel Mobile Communications group.

I am a senior software engineer for audio control in the customer support area with more than 10 years experience in the area of Real-time OS (Nucleus), Embedded systems cross-platform software development/debugging and ARM micro-controller programming in C in the "wireless" industry.

I studied at the [University of Applied Sciences München] at the faculty [Precision- and Micro-Engineering] and afterwards started my career at Optimay GmbH, a subsidiary of the Lucent Microelectronics group. At some point Lucent spun-off Agere Systems and Optimay GmbH became a subsidiary of it and was later on integrated. After that LSI bought/merged with Agere Systems, but was focused on the Storage & Network business, hence the whole Mobility division was sold to Infineon AG shortly afterwards. After three tough years at IFX the complete Wireless Solutions business unit was sold to Intel. The deal was closed on 1st February 2011. So here i am at my 5th employer without ever changing job...

How to write good software: The trick is to get the balance right between quality and just-in-time delivery. Spending a little additional effort to do a proper system-design always pays off in my experience, as it saves a lot of support effort with the customer later. Call me old-fashioned, but it's just nice if things work out of the box, are simple to understand and maintain, yet enhanceable without the need for a complete rewrite from scratch if a new feature comes along. And one more thing; Despite all good intentions code rots, so do not be afraid to throw old stuff away if necessary.
