Hans Oischinger is a software developer and product owner with 8+ years in automotive HMI and infotainment systems, currently shaping user-facing software at BMW. He brings deep embedded and system-level experience from roles at BMW Car IT and Airbus Military, where he led development of flight training simulators. Comfortable balancing hands-on coding with product stewardship, he contributes to open source—improving the widely used Home Assistant ViCare integration by adding sensors, refactoring logic, and hardening I/O handling. Based in Dachau, he combines academic computer science training with pragmatic engineering, and his wry GitHub motto ("A man with a tool is still a fool") hints at a practical, tool-agnostic approach to solving real-world problems.
