Omar KACIMI

Working at OFFIS research institute for computer science in Oldenburg during the last four years, I gained competencies in various fields. As I worked in different EU research projects, I participated in project management activities including meetings in an intercultural environment allowing me to significantly evolve on the interpersonal level. Also, my writing and presentation skills were further polished throughout co-authoring and presenting project deliverables and several scientific articles.

On the technical front, I became more experienced in Java development and several software technologies from the Java world. Throughout participating in different projects involving EMF such as an EMF-Based Simulink Model and an RDF-Based query engine for EMF models and Extending industrial grade Eclipse-Based tools, I became very knowledgeable in Eclipse-Based technologies. Additionally, working intensively on standardized software integration based on web technology (OSLC) I also gained knowledge in the area of Java-based web development. Finally, as I worked on a toolchain that facilitates the retrieval of engineering data from various tools, I initiated myself well to technologies from the world of big data such as RDF, SPARQL as language and protocol, the Apache Jena framework, and several open source triple stores.

After acquiring these skills, I joined Itemis to apply myself in an industrial context and grow furthermore both on the technical and personal fronts. Accordingly, I learned in Itemis to work according to Scrum on an Eclipse-based product and I additionally had the opportunity to undergo a Scrum training and to obtain a Scrum Master/Professional Certification.

I am currently on the lookout for new opportunities that would allow me to further polish my technical know-how and personal skills.
