Sven Bischoff
Senior Engineering Manager from Leipzig
Currently I'm working as Senior Engineering Manager responsible for the clusters "Book" and "App" in the E-Commerce division at Invia Travel Germany GmbH on the e-commerce travel platform ab-in-den-urlaub.de and several more. I've been with the company since 2016 – from Junior Software Developer through Technical Product Owner and Lead Software Engineer to my current role. For this role, I've completed further training in team leadership, conflict management and as a Mental Health First Aider. Whether one-on-one or in front of a larger audience, supporting people always comes first for me: I'm happiest when people trust me and I get to watch them grow.
My fascination for the web and its underlying technology started more than ten years ago and hasn't left me since. I really enjoy the design and creation process of web applications and their contents – from PHP, JavaScript and Symfony early on, through the webserver and its Linux operating system down to the hardware, including automation, backups, virtualization and containers.
Apart from that I'm quite interested in gaming, photography, music, science and DIY. I also like to research topics I'm interested in and hold a B.Sc. Medieninformatik from Hochschule Harz, where my bachelor's thesis explored the presence of the author in photography.
