Gavin joined the SUSI&James team in September 2017. As an intern at the time, he spent several weeks at the company and familiarized himself with the responsibilities of a software developer. For his bachelor’s thesis, he conducted a research project on natural language generation and strategies for humanizing voice assistants.
“SUSI&James is a family where we work together as a team to tackle problems and find solutions. It’s a small team that gives you a lot of responsibility.”
Gavin stands out for his creativity. Driven by his curiosity, he has always felt a strong urge to understand how things work. He decided to pursue a degree in applied computer science because he recognized the growing importance of technology and was eager to explore what goes on behind the scenes. From the very beginning, Gavin was particularly fascinated by the various aspects of technology and its diverse applications.
In this context, he is passionate about abstract thinking and exploring ideas. While in college, Gavin began an internship at SUSI&James. After graduating from college in Heidelberg, Gavin devoted himself to music. In September 2018, he began studying pop music design at the Popakademie Baden-Württemberg. Gavin continues to work with us as a student employee.
"I’d like to grow into a full-stack developer and have the opportunity to take on more responsibility." ”
Right from his first job interview, Gavin sensed the family-like atmosphere and the relaxed rapport among the employees. Immediately after starting, he was given his first assignments, some of which he carried out independently. Gavin worked closely with management and helped further develop the “AI with a Heart” initiative. He turned the vision of making the digital assistant SUSI as human as possible into initial prototypes.

In addition to a proof of concept, Gavin developed prototypes for client presentations. For Gavin, it is particularly remarkable to be able to follow and experience the development and growth of our company.
