Hi, I'm Jithu Benny.

In January 2023 I moved from India to Germany. It was a big step into a new life, and I wanted more than a job: I wanted to grow, keep learning, and truly settle in. By then I already had four years as a software engineer behind me, first at Innovature and then at Geojit Technologies.

I joined tree-IT GmbH & Co. KG in April 2023 and spent my first year as a trainee. I learned the team's development processes and tools, and also how they work: agile thinking, clear communication, and owning things as a team. At the same time I continued learning German.

tree-IT didn't just offer me a job. They gave me a place to feel at home in a new country, with room to learn, contribute, and take ownership.

Since August 2024 I've been building for Porsche. I work on Porsche ID, the account Porsche customers use to manage their profile, across backend, frontend, and infrastructure.

Was it easy? No.

It meant living up to the trust my team put in me, taking initiative instead of waiting to be told what to do, and pushing past the fear of doing things I'd never done before.

I completed my postgraduate studies at Amal Jyothi College of Engineering in India. I work comfortably in English, German, and Malayalam (my native language).

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family and investing in my personal growth.
