Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolBerthold Höllmann is a Senior Development Engineer with over 11 years of professional software experience and a multi-decade background in FEM-related tooling dating back to the 1990s. He specializes in Python development and native extensions, having extended Python with C, C++ and Fortran to build converters, pre/post processors, and libraries for interacting with in-house and NASTRAN FEM file formats. His work blends low-level systems programming and scientific engineering—bringing shipbuilding and mechanical engineering training to bear on robust command-line and library solutions for simulation workflows. Now at Jungheinrich after a senior role at kumkeo and a long tenure at DNV GL, he is comfortable navigating legacy codebases and integrating cross-language components to keep engineering pipelines productive. An often-overlooked strength is his persistent focus on interoperability: enabling modern Python tooling to leverage decades-old Fortran/C libraries in production contexts.
