Summary
Philipp Hachtmann is a Lead Software Engineer based in Lower Saxony, Germany, with 11 years of hands-on experience in low-level Linux and infotainment systems, kernel development, and security engineering. He has a track record at companies like IBM, Continental and ADIT (a Bosch–Denso JV), and now leads software efforts at EDAG Group while also freelancing as a journalist. Philipp blends deep technical expertise—System Z and Linux kernel work—with practical product instincts honed running a boutique letterpress shop for years. Colleagues would describe him as quirky and inventive (his own words channeling cartoon inventors) but rigorously pragmatic when debugging complex systems. He programs “small and big computers,” comfortable moving between embedded targets and enterprise-class platforms, and brings an unusual mix of craftsmanship, communication, and security-focused engineering to every project.
