Hi, I’m Omar Farag, a software engineer based in Hannover. I currently contribute to Hannover Rück, developing complex features in Guidewire PolicyCenter using Gosu, integrating Java-based components like Tomcat and Solr in a cloud environment, and building robust CI/CD pipelines with Azure DevOps while automating tasks with PowerShell. I enjoy collaborating with Product Owners to translate requirements into clean, maintainable code and clear technical documentation. Previously, as a Working Student at Hannover Rück, I focused on improving unit tests for quality assurance and supporting UI configuration in collaboration with Business Analysts. I’m eager to continue learning and applying best practices in software development and cloud operations.
