Hi, I’m André and this is my Project Log.

In my freetime I’m a maker and 3D printer enthusiast and at work I’m an AI Engineer.

I think that my interest in making stuff started after Abitur as I bought an old east german S51 Simson moped which I renovated with the help of my father.

During my time in university, I started building small electronic things, either for courses or for myself and friends.

In 2016, 3D printers where the new hot stuff and many people started to build their own printers since most buyable printers simply were not affordable.

So, I started to build a MPCNC 3D printer from scratch, which came alive in 2017 (the idea was to have a machine which also can be used as something else later on - namely a CNC machine for laser cutting or engraving).

During my master degree, I started to get into machine learning and AI. This is why I wrote my thesis about automatic generation of source code with the help of neural networks with the name Generating Code Suggestions. In 2018 I graduated by getting my Master of Science in Computer Science and Media.

I started to work as a research assistant afterwards, working towards a PhD degree. The research topic continued my master thesis topic: artificial generation / synthesis of source code. However, in 2020 I quit my job as research assistant and started to work as an AI Engineer at an Software Agency.

  • Python

  • Java

  • C for microcontroller
