Tim Ittermann is a pragmatic software engineer with 12 years of experience building backend systems from his base in Herne, Germany. Currently a Softwaretechniker at rku.it GmbH since 2016, he combines applied industry experience with formal training in Computer Software Engineering (FH Dortmund) and an ongoing MSc in Web Science (TH Köln). He contributes to open-source projects such as the well-known ComputerCraft mod for Minecraft, where he focused on time-related APIs and refactored core OS time functions—an example of thoughtful, maintainable backend work. Comfortable across legacy and modern codebases, Tim is known for making incremental, high-impact improvements rather than flashy rewrites. Colleagues describe him succinctly on GitHub: “Hi I'm Tim and I press keys,” which belies a careful, detail-oriented approach to engineering. He brings steady, practical problem solving to teams that need reliable, long-term software maintenance and evolution.

Contributions summary:Tim primarily contributed to the development of time-related APIs within the Computercraft project. Their work involved creating a `TimeAPI.java` file to provide time-related functions, integrating it into the `Computer` class, and later refactoring the code. The user replaced existing get methods with properties and placed time functions into the OS API, and updated the return value type of `os.time()`.
