Jan-hendrik Menke is an engineer for system development with nine years of experience applying machine learning and classical methods to power system modeling, state estimation and market simulations. He has a strong academic foundation (Dr.-Ing., Universität Kassel) and has driven open-source development of pandapower features for distribution grid modeling and Plotly-based visualizations. At Amprion he builds software for dynamic visualization of market and grid data and contributes to flow-based market coupling and security-of-supply studies, bridging research-grade algorithms and production tooling. Known for pragmatic problem analysis, he codes across Python, C++, Go, JavaScript and MATLAB to turn low-measurement state estimation concepts into usable models and visual insights. A less obvious strength is his history as a Linux server admin and long-term involvement in converting GIS customer data into runnable network models, which helps him unite data engineering, simulation and visualization end-to-end.
