Dr. rer. nat. Jonas Traub
Senior Software Engineer at Celonis working in the SAP-Pipeline Team. Former researcher at Technische Universität Berlin and the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI). Working with Volker Markl at DIMA and IAM.
I am a Senior Software Engineer at Celonis working in the SAP-Pipeline Team.
Before joining Celonis, I worked at SAP on the Master Data Integration (MDI) Service, which is part of SAP's Business Technology Platform (BTP).
Formerly, I was a researcher at TU Berlin and DFKI working on stream processing systems, sensor data analysis, data acquisition, stream processing on modern hardware, and scalable data infrastructures.
I am a founding member and architect of the Nebula Stream Platform and the Agora Ecosystem.
In my PhD, I worked on damand-based data stream gathering, processing, and transmission.
I defended my PhD in March 2019 with Manfred Hauswirth as head of the committee and Volker Markl, Amr El Abbadi, and Albert Bifet as committee members.
I wrote my master thesis during a year abroad at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) and the Swedish Institute of Computer Science (SICS) / RISE in Stockholm under Supervision of Seif Haridi and Volker Markl and advised by Paris Carbone and Asterios Katsifodimos.
Prior to that, I received my B.Sc. degree at Baden-Württemberg Cooperative State University (DHBW Stuttgart) and worked several years at IBM in Germany and the USA.
I am alumnus of Software Campus, Studienstiftung des deutschen Volkes, and Deutschlandstipendium.
I am also head of the board of the alumni organization of Software Campus (SWCA e.V.).
