A cost reduction system was implemented for the software development department of a major customer in the medical sector:

• Problem: the number of virtual machines required to run CI/CD pipelines fluctuates greatly depending on developer activity. Static provision of the required number of VMs is cost-intesive.
• Solution: Development of an on-demand system for the automated provisioning and decommissioning of virtual machines for the execution of CI/CD pipelines
• Result: Massive cost savings, as only as many virtual machines as necessary are provided at any one time

Development and implementation of a network interface for connecting various sensors to a conveyor belt for transporting medical samples, based on TCP/IP.

• Layer model based on TCP / IP

Collaboration on the architecture and development of an application for the configuration of fieldbus devices in engineering systems using ASP.net core and React
