Senior🎓
Top SchoolFrederic Salmen is a research-oriented software engineer and doctoral candidate at RWTH Aachen with around 10 years of experience focused on learning technologies and educational informatics. He combines hands-on development—building a linguistic annotation tool and later a deep-learning pipeline with spaCy and Streamlit—with academic research in the LuFg i9 group and the NERD 2 graduate school. His background in computer science education (BEd/MEd) informs pragmatic, user-centered tool design for teaching and research workflows. At Paderborn he moved from student assistant tasks to completing upb::Annotate and leading a DL project, showing a pattern of turning prototypes into production-ready tools. Based in Aachen, he bridges classroom pedagogy and applied ML, pursuing a PhD that aims to make learning technologies both empirically grounded and practically useful.
