-Currently working as engineering consultant for Aquantia Corp. Always curious about technological innovations and therefore graduated in electrical engineering \& computer science. Strives for a complete understanding of computers, from the lowest level---i.e., the bare integrated circuits---to the highest---i.e., user space---, and is therefore always eager to learn something new. Enjoys writing small programs in his free time, either to automate everyday problems, or simply for the sake of fun, and gets excited by the seemingly endless possibilities of Linux. Loves a good read, also on non-tech subjects like economics, anthropology, or (geo)politics. 
+I am a senior staff engineer digital IC design at Marvell Semiconductor and have always been curious about technological innovations. For that reason I graduated in electrical engineering, information technology \& computer engineering. I have always striven for a complete understanding of computers, from the lowest level—i.e., the bare integrated circuits—to the highest—i.e., user space—and am therefore always eager to learn something new. I enjoy writing small programs in my free time, either to automate everyday problems, or simply for the sake of fun, and get excited by the seemingly endless possibilities of Linux.
