I started working in 2001 for an IT company in Vienna, where I gained my first experience with industrial software solutions. I was responsible for the administration and maintenance of the company's IT infrastructure, in the remaining time I worked in the development team implementing and customizing ERP solutions based on Microsoft Dynamics AX. In 2003 I decided to study Software Engineering on the Technical University of Vienna, where I gained my Bachelor of Science in 2007. In 2006 I joined a software project for the medical industry, where I got interested in Open Source software development and the Eclipse project, particularly in the Eclipse Rich Client Platform. Currently I'm writing my master thesis about software reviews and the integration into the Eclipse IDE.
