Welcome to Julian’s webpage

Hi, my name is Julian, I work as a cloud consultant Detecon, a subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom. I work in the intersection of data science/data engineering and cloud infrastructure. Right now, this is not really active and most of the content is from my time as a PhD student.

Prior to industry, I did a PhD in Information Science at University of Hildesheim. I used this blog to write about interesting things in the fields of Information Science, Digital Humanities, User Experience, Ontology Engineering and Open Science. See my latest posts.

I worked at DIPF | Leibniz Instute for Research and Information in Education in the department Information Center for Education. During my PhD I had the chance to also work at the department of Human Centered Design & Engineering at University of Washington, Seattle.

During the PhD I worked on ontology engineering and human-centered design, mostly with a focus on digital humanities and open science. I used methods of human-centered design to create ontologies and support Open Science. In general, I am interested in the various ways technology changes our society.
