Hi!

I'm Sofie. I am a Software Engineer who just loves coding, debugging, documenting, testing, nitpicking and fine-tuning. I prefer code to be sufficiently robust and modular, and I care a great deal about user experience (UX) and quality assurance (QA). I always love to do the simple thing first ๐Ÿ›–, then build up the complexity as required ๐Ÿ›๏ธ.

I have a PhD in Natural Language Processing (NLP) ๐ŸŽ“ and I've been working in NLP and ML ever since my Master's back in 2007. I run a one-woman company called OxyKodit to implement tailored solutions for a variety of businesses and domains - because who wouldn't benefit from NLP in their company? I find it extremely satisfying to dive into a client's business context and NLP needs, and to come up with a solution that will bring actual real-world value to them ๐Ÿค“.

I'm passionate about open-source ๐Ÿ. I've written some (now out-dated) software back at Uni, and for several years I've been a core maintainer of the NLP library spaCy, its deep learning library Thinc, and various other repo's in the same ๐Ÿ’ฅ ecosystem. I'm currently also helping out with maintenance of Typer and FastAPI. An interview with Once a Maintainer about my journey into open-source can be found here.

Shoot me an email if you'd like to work together!
