Robert Schaffar-Taurok is a software architect with over 20 years of experience in designing, evolving, and maintaining complex software systems. He guides technical projects from architectural decisions to production deployment – with a focus on clean interfaces, robust modularity, and sustainable collaboration across teams.

His core work lies in cloud-native Java development, architectural coordination, and the long-term structuring of engineering processes. As a data scientist, he bridges the gap between machine learning research and product: from prototypical model exploration to deployment in production systems.

He is currently pursuing a combined Bachelor's/Master's degree in Artificial Intelligence at Johannes Kepler University Linz.
