I'm a real-time rendering engineer specializing in low-level GPU programming and graphics. I completed my Master's in Computer Science at TU Dortmund, where my thesis focused on combining meshes with Gaussian splatting for 3D head reconstruction.

My projects range from research prototypes and games to popular performance-focused systems like Conduit. I'm based in Germany and open to relocation or remote work.

Vulkan, WebGPU, Godot, Unity, PBR, Machine Learning, Rust, C++, C

Highlights:

• 

  Bachelor's Thesis

  Reconstructing blurry images using score-based diffusion models.

  • The inputs are blurry, noisy images.
  • Implemented two recent papers in Python with PyTorch.
  • Invented a third approach and evaluated it.
• 

  NES Emulator

  An NES emulator to play Mario Bros.

  • Implemented a virtual 6502 CPU with correct timing in Rust.
  • Built the pixel processing unit for rendering tiles and sprites.
  • Compiled it to WebAssembly to integrate it into a website.
• 

  Implicit function plotter

  Renders animated surfaces in real-time with WebGPU.

  • Every time the user changes the function input, a new compute shader is compiled.
  • The function surface is found by casting a ray through pixels and quickly finding zeros using the function derivative.
  • As an optimization, results from previous frames and neighboring pixels are reused.

• 

  Conduit

  An open-source Matrix chat server with 2000+ active deployments.
  I created this project and maintained it for many years.

• 

  Minecraft Pathtracer

  Renders Minecraft worlds using ray-marching. Made from scratch with WebGPU.

• 

  Geometry processing

  Remeshing and other operations from scratch in Rust building on theory I learned in University.

• 

  University group project

  Stylized Unity environments for VR with full-body tracking.
  I implemented realistic lighting and materials.

• 

  Disco-Jump

  My team's winning entry in a 48-hour game jam. Made by me and a friend in Godot.

• 

  Beauty of Evolution

  A 48-hour game jam puzzle game where you select your abilities. Made by me and a friend in Godot.
