Still Connecting Everything with KNIME

Hello to the (new) KNIME world,

As a longtime member of the KNIME Forum, “Contributor of the Month,” and even having once been called something like a “Solution Institution,” I am excited to explore the new KNIME Community.

I work as a Senior Data Scientist at a large telecommunications company and also have experience in the insurance industry and consulting. Tools I have used in the past include SPSS/Clementine and SAS Enterprise Miner, as well as R/RStudio, Python, and BigData systems like Cloudera and the Google Cloud stack (think BigQuery and Vertex AI). But KNIME is definitely my favorite because of its broad platform approach (“connect everything”) and its workflow concept: bringing everyone together to solve business problems instead of focusing only on technology — although technology is, of course, still important.

I live in Cologne, Germany, and enjoy traveling by train, dining, and spending time with family and friends.

If you have questions or challenges, I am always happy to jump in and contribute. That builds on what I think we all enjoy most about the KNIME community: a very friendly and helpful atmosphere that welcomes new KNIMErs :-)

CU,
Markus
