Since 1995 I have worked as soft- and hardware developer. My diversified background includes experience in the areas C/C++, Assembler and OpenCL/CUDA. And, of course, I can understand similar languages like Pascal, C#, etc.Basically I developed hardware-oriented software: drivers and codecs. But, in addition I have strong skills in hardware (digital and analog). For example, I development from the scratch various embedded micro-controllers (i8051, Atmel, Zilog, etc.)I am the author of “DVMPEG” - professional MPEG-encoder for PC (review in “Chip”, April 2002, available on www.chip.de)Since 2005 I have worked in MainConcept GmbH. (Aachen) at a position Senior Software Entwickler. We developed world-known codecs: MPEG, AVC/h264, HEVC/h265, etc. My task was to tune and accelerate them by parallel programming, hardware acceleration. Also bug fixing, source control, and support our customers: Adobe, Sonic, Intel, DivX, etc.Unfortunately, our company has acquired byRovi AC. formerly known as Macrovision), which has decided to restructure the business and close development in Aachen.
