After successfully completing the Master’s program with the title Master of Science (M.Sc.) and the additional title Master of Business Administration (MBA) from a Brazilian university, where I completed a period abroad, TecAlliance offered me another opportunity for further development.

Georg Speth
Senior Software Developer
When my studies of Software Engineering at the University of Applied Sciences Heilbronn slowly came to an end in early 2008, I was looking for a suitable diploma thesis. Through a fellow student I came into contact with the company AuDaCon IT-Solutions GmbH (as the company was then still called) in Weikersheim, where I wrote my diploma thesis - a web tool for the translation run - from May 2008 to September 2008.As I found the working environment very appealing and I also came to appreciate my colleagues, I was delighted when I was made a takeover offer after my successful completion of my studies, which I gladly accepted. Until the introduction of the new structures, I worked in the team that provided the RMI (Repair and maintenance information) for the customers in the form of program libraries or web applications. Thereby I specialized myself towards the backend. Already during this time I came into contact with trainees who completed part of their training in the team and was allowed to give them professional guidance. In 2016 I had the opportunity to take on more responsibility and passed the AEVO exam at the IHK.Since the restructuring I have been working in the Data Manager Trade BU in the RMI Backend Team. There we take care of the maintenance, support and further development of the RMI program library and its web service.In my private life I can consider myself lucky as a staff member of my cat. Furthermore I like to play analog board games; which we also do on a fairly regular basis in the games evening we founded with some like-minded trainees.
