Senior🎓
Top SchoolRoy Schneider is a senior software engineer and team leader with nine years in his current role and over two decades building control and diagnostic software for the elevator industry. As Leitender Ingenieur Softwareentwicklung at Thor Engineering he architects and implements embedded control software and diagnostic toolchains, including a lift application and associated Toolbox. His background spans product development leadership, CAD-integrated hardware teams, and mobile client apps from PocketPC and J2ME to modern Android/iOS platforms. An active contributor to embedded/IoT open-source work, he has improved robustness and error handling in the well-known bacnet-stack protocol library. Based in Grafschaft, Germany, he combines an applied engineering degree (Dipl.-Ing. FH) with hands-on power-electronics apprenticeship experience, giving him uncommon depth across software, electronics and field diagnostics. Colleagues describe him as someone who turns early ideas into reliable products by shaping both code and the teams that deliver them.
