New team member: Peter!

And jovoto grew again… We proudly present and welcome our new team member: Peter.

Employed as a project and product manager, Peter is supposed to manage not only external projects but also coordinate internal communication and workflows. He will work as a link between the community team and the developers, helping to translate the latest ideas of how to improve the jovoto-platform into reality. We are extremely happy to have him and working with him has been a pleasure since he joined us two weeks ago. Peter has a lot of experience in the field and I leave it ti him to impress you:

Hello everybody! My name’s Peter and it’s great to be with the jovoto crowd! Hopefully we’ll all get to know each other sooner or later. Here is how I got to join the jovoto-Team:
I first studied Applied Information Science in Siegen, together with Daniel by the way. After graduating I worked as a software developer for a software company, but realized pretty quickly that I didn’t want to spend the rest of my life programming. I quit my job and moved to Berlin without really knowing what I was going for. I applied at the Institute of Electronic Business and , luckily, got accepted. Whilst studying I worked as a freelance developer and consultant and continued doing that after my diploma in 2008. But being the restless person I am, I now decided that it’s time for yet another change. It’s always exciting to discover and experience new challenges and new environments and make yourself comfortable with new structures. Jovoto is a great adventure and I am so curious to see where this journey will lead us to. It is impressive to see the development and growth this platform went through in the past two years. That’s why I accepted the job offer by jovoto after having turned down similar offers before. I am happy I made this decision – and now: let it grow guys!
