About

I research Human–Agent Teaming (HAT) in Manned–Unmanned Teaming (MUM-T) with a focus on coordination, decision support, team structures, and team dynamics for collaborative combat aircraft. At UniBw Munich, I translate cognitive systems engineering and multi-agent concepts into implementable coordination mechanisms and evaluate them in simulation and applied research contexts. As a Jet Team Lead, I coordinate demo timelines, stakeholder meetings, and requirement baselines to ensure project milestones are delivered on time. I enjoy bridging research and industry needs—e.g., as a single point of contact for Airbus Defence and Space—turning operational challenges into testable concepts and publications. Core topics: Human–Agent Teaming (HAT), Manned-Unmanned Teaming (MUM-T), Multi-Agent Coordination, Cognitive Systems Engineering, Cockpit/HMI

Experience

  • Universität der Bundeswehr München (Full-time · 6 yrs 8 mos)
    • Research associate
      Feb 2024 - Present · 2 yrs 5 mos

      • Conduct research on Human–Agent Teaming in MUM-T for collaborative combat aircraft (team structures, coordination, decision support). • Design and evaluate multi-agent coordination mechanisms for mission-level teaming (concepts → prototypes → evaluation). • Act as Single Point of Contact for Airbus Defence and Space, aligning objectives, demonstrations, and deliverables between stakeholders. • Jet Team Lead: coordinate demo timelines, stakeholder meetings, and requirement baselines to deliver project milestones on time. • Translate cognitive engineering principles into cockpit-/operator-centric information design and task-oriented interaction concepts. • Disseminate results via publications and talks; contribute to award-recognized work (Best Paper).
