I studied computer science at FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg.
Currently, I am a PhD candidate in the System Security group.

My research interests are focused on Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs), confidential computing (Intel TDX and AMD SEV-SNP), software isolation, and systems programming.

If you are enrolled as a computer science student at FAU, I can directly supervise your thesis. Note that not all available open theses may be publicly advertised. You can always write a kind email containing some information about you to julian.funk@fau.de and we’ll chat for available options.
