Hello, my name is Andreas Nauerz.
I am a Technical Product Manager in the Cloud business unit at IBM. In this role I am acting as a cross-functional team leader and client & partner advocate. Together with colleagues from design, development, marketing, and research etc., I define products (and their capabilities/features) to be build and help to manage their development, launch, promotion, and ongoing improvement. Prior to this position I have been working as a Software Engineer and Software Architect after having joined IBM as a university hire. I have studied Computer Science and Law and did my PhD in the former where I was focusing on topics like user- and context modeling & recommender systems. OpenWhisk is one of the most exciting projects I have ever been part of and it makes me happy and proud to have been given the chance to work together with so many enthusiastic, motivated and brilliant people. For me Serverless Computing in general and OpenWhisk in particular has the potential to become a real game changer for cloud-native application development and it is simply exciting to be part of its development. Currently I am most interested in learning from all of you - actually from anyone, be it developers, clients, or partners - about use-cases, scenarios, requirements, ideas, etc. to make OpenWhisk even better. So if you want to chat about your ideas etc. pp. do not hesitate to reach-out at any time. My one and only goal is to help making OpenWhisk a success. In my current role I am also traveling a lot attending many of the key conferences in the field of Serverless Computing. So it's very likely that you can meet my in person if you attend conferences like the upcoming Serverless Conference in Austin in April 2017. In my spare time I love to do sports (even though I am doing too less sports these days - and my scale keeps telling me about this every single day *g), esp. running, biking, badminton, and team handball. I am also interested in photography, good movies, and cooking. I'm looking forward to working with all of you in order to build an competetive open serverless engine and a strong and rich ecosystem of event producers and consumers.
