HSD, Student assistant in Machine LearningApr. 2021 - Mar. 2022
Assisted in an industrial research project which had the goal to make proficient predictions with a production-line measurement data using deep autoencoder neural networks. Among other things this included common software engineering tasks in an in-house machine learning framework.

Teaching
HSD, Introductory development projectSep. 2022 - Feb. 2023
Offered a course for first semester students, in which the participants got a practical introduction in the workflows and basics steps of mechanical engineering. During the course, the students designed and built a simple measurement setup for the aerodynamic evaluation of airfoils.
