Patrick Kursawe is a software developer with over a decade of experience building control and automation software for laboratory instruments, particularly autosamplers and device integration. With a background in analytical chemistry (PhD-level) he bridges domain science and engineering, translating complex lab workflows into reliable C# and VB.NET control systems. His career includes long-term roles at GERSTEL and Axel Semrau where he developed Maestro-like orchestration for diverse devices (centrifuges, barcode readers, ultrasonic baths), and earlier contributions maintaining scientific packages for Gentoo. Comfortable with legacy and modern stacks—C++, Delphi, Python—he focuses on robust, deterministic software for regulated lab environments. Based in Sprockhövel, Germany, he brings a pragmatic blend of scientific rigor and hands-on systems engineering that reduces integration friction in automated labs.
