Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolHannes Hauswedell is a C/C++ software engineer with 12 years of experience who blends systems-level craftsmanship with a strong background in bioinformatics and academic research. Based in Berlin, he holds a PhD in biomathematics/bioinformatics and has applied that expertise at institutions like Freie Universität, Max Planck, deCODE genetics, and now at DeepL. An active ISO C++ committee member and former national body chair for Iceland, he contributes to standards shaping modern C++ and has worked on influential open-source projects such as range-v3 (the basis for C++20 ranges) and SeqAn’s BLAST module. Hannes focuses on backend, type-erasure and compatibility work, test-suite robustness and reproducible tools, pairing rigorous research instincts with production engineering. Outside code he’s as interested in scientific rigor as he is in a good cup of black tea.

Range library for C++14/17/20, basis for C++20's std::ranges
Role in this project:Back-end Developer
Back-end DeveloperContributions:17 commits, 9 PRs, 122 comments in 2 years 4 months
Contributions summary:Hannes primarily focused on enhancing the `range-v3` library, a foundational library for C++ ranges. Their work involved implementing and modifying core components of the library, specifically the `any_view` class, which allows for type-erased views. They addressed the sizing of views and also incorporated features like deduction guides and C++11 compatibility fixes. Additionally, the user was involved in test suite modifications and addressing related issues with compilers.
