Hey there! I'm

Max Riedel.

About me.

My passion for computer science began at an early age through hands-on projects with my uncle, such as building a smart home system using a Raspberry Pi and programming in Python. Today, I'm a 21-year-old computer science student based in Karlsruhe, Germany. I currently focus on developing web applications using Java, Go, Next.js and the next new Technology, both independently and as part of a team at work. Beyond software engineering, I've developed a strong interest in system architecture, with a particular focus on cybersecurity. When I'm not in front of a computer, you'll likely find me reading, spending time with friends, or playing chess.
