Thorsten Reichert is a Principal Software Engineer with a decade of experience building high-performance, asynchronous and functional systems, now based in Feucht, Bavaria. He combines a strong academic background—doctoral-level mathematics and a physics MS/BS—with hands-on engineering across medical device integration, image analysis, and cloud-enabled QA tooling. At IBA Dosimetry he architected robust communication layers and image-processing algorithms for dosimetry devices and later coached teams while owning Azure DevOps pipelines and web-service integrations. A committed teacher and lifelong learner, he focuses on performance and correctness, evidenced by his contributions migrating and hardening F# compiler tests in the prominent dotnet/fsharp repo. Colleagues describe him as a pragmatic problem solver who translates rigorous, research-grade thinking into maintainable production software. He brings rare depth at the intersection of formal mathematical reasoning and practical, mission-critical engineering.
