I am currently working on software development for a fast simulation of the
ATLAS tracking detectors, which means I'm programming in C++ within the
Athena environment. My task is to implement a connection to the conditions
data subsystem, allowing dead and noisy channels to be treated properly in
the detector simulation. Before that, I worked at DESY and did simulations
of beam-induced backgrounds in detectors at the International Linear
Collider, trying to estimate the impact of background particles which get
created in large amounts during each bunch crossing and which can then smash
into the forward instrumentation. For these studies I did Geant4-based
programming in C++ as well, but I also needed to deal with MySQL, PHP, XML,
and some shell scripting. Furthermore, I gained some experience with the
gLite middleware by running my jobs and storing my data on Grid resources.
