Summary
Independent software architect and engineering leader, building web products since 2015. I design architectures and cloud infrastructure, lead the teams that build on them, and stay hands-on in the code. Clients include RWE, kicker.de, Hasso-Plattner-Institut, and US startup Audo. Clients have repeatedly promoted me into leadership roles — most notably leading an 8-person engineering team at Audo for almost four years. Currently building easyCDN and consulting for bull markets media — a returning client. AI-assisted engineering (Claude Code, Cursor) is a core part of my workflow.
