I’m a computer systems researcher. Since Sept 2020, I’m a Full Professor (W3) and Head of the Chair of Decentralized Systems Engineering in the Department of Informatics at the Technical University of Munich (TUM). Before moving to TUM, I was an Associate Professor (Reader) in the School of Informatics at the University of Edinburgh (UoE), where I also currently hold an Honorary Full Professor position.
At TUM, I’m also an Academic Co-Director of the TUM Venture Lab for Software/AI, a Board Professor at the Center for Digital Technology and Management (CDTM), and a core member of the Munich Data Science Institute (MDSI), Munich Institute of Robotics and Machine Intelligence (MIRMI), BMBF Center on 6G Life, and Munich Quantum Valley (MQV).
At UoE, I’m also a Turing Fellow at the Alan Turing Institute and a Principal Investigator at the UK Research Institute in Secure Hardware and Embedded Systems (RISE).
I graduated with a Ph.D. from the Max Planck Institute for Software Systems (MPI-SWS).
I also actively worked in several industrial research labs, most recently as the (Founding) Technical Director of the Huawei Dresden Research Center. Previously, I worked with Microsoft Research, IBM Research, Yahoo! Research, Adobe Systems, and Bell Labs.
