AHF analysentechnik AG is a family business that exists for almost 40
years and now has around 20 employees. The company started as an
engineering office for custom-made products in the field of plasma
emissions. Over the years, other business areas have been added. In
parallel to the sale of laboratory equipment, we also advance our own
product developments. Due to the flat hierarchy and the open atmosphere,
there is a lot of freedom to develop and contribute. In my talk I will
deal with the special aspects of a small company that is close to
research and the needs of laboratory users. In addition, I will report
about my career start and my work environment at AHF analysentechnik AG,
as well as give an insight into my work as a developer there.
