Profile
As a senior professional with 20 years of experience, I am devoted to creating solutions that are as visually intuitive as it is impeccably engineered. I want my work to have a positive impact to the ones who use it, and also for the ones who want it created. With a track record of building sustainably, my aim is to deliver solutions that excel in internal quality, embodying excellence in every layer of development. I have built teams from scratch while building products, and have a keen mind when it comes to strategic decision on technology, and how it can benefit the business. Generally keeping a frugal mindset, allows me to bring the startup efficiency to anywhere I work.
Skills & Tech
Highlights / Requirements Match
Cloud Tech / Dev-Ops
Designed, deployed, and maintained cloud solutions across AWS (EC2, Lambda), Heroku, and private clouds, with hands-on CI and deployment workflows to deliver scalable, secure cloud-native services.
Backends, Frontends, Tools
Built backend systems over several years, from monoliths to microservices, plus standalone services using genetic algorithms and CLI tools for IoT developers?experience well-suited to microservices-oriented cloud backends.
System/Software Architecture
Applied deep system design expertise?entity relationships, APIs, and component interactions?to create clean, extensible architectures that support microservice boundaries and future-proof cloud applications.
Algorithms/Complexity
PhD in efficient algorithms, applied in numerous practical projects, providing a strong CS foundation for designing performant, scalable services and data processing in cloud environments.
Project Management
Co-founded and grew a Frankfurt-based tech taskforce to 4 FTEs and a freelancer network; led and delivered projects end-to-end, coordinating development and delivery into production.
Team integration
Built and led teams as an enabler and mentor, guiding engineers from zero to delivery while collaborating across roles to ship successful products.
Command Line Interface
Leverage powerful UNIX utilities for rapid prototyping and validation before formalizing solutions, accelerating feedback and de-risking cloud backend implementation.
