Mechatronics engineer supporting the pharmaceutical industry. Formerly a systems engineer in the automotive industry. Physics & computer science graduate.
I've never been explicitly employed as a programmer of sorts, and tend to always work one level above. That said, I often have to examine code to see how my end of things should work, and am quick to script my way out of problems when opportunity arises.
I'm a knight of all trades, but not the master of any one yet. I complete a team by being able to fill all and any niches, though I perform best by myself. Other people are distracting and mistake-prone.
