“I've had the privilege to work under Hannes as a Search Engineer. If there was one word to describe Hannes, it would be: creative. Hannes has many great ideas and is an out-of-the-box thinker. He's data-driven and follows best practices, but uses his creativity to bring products from good to great. He excels as a leader who ensures that tasks get done and trusts his teammates. Hannes is willing to get his hands dirty and do the necessary work to ensure deadlines are met. He encourages others to tackle challenging projects and to grow in their career. He was always available for advice and recommendations and is well-versed in all areas of computer science from machine learning to distributed systems to even mobile development. He is passionate about technology and is always continuously learning, reading many research papers and books. Hannes also enjoys experimenting and tinkering with new technology on his free-time. During lunch breaks, it was always exciting to hear about the lessons he has learned from his personal experiments. Overall, I would highly recommend Hannes for any position he pursues. ”
