Software Architect and Developer at Personal project
A recurring problem in my own AI-supported projects: requirements analysis, use cases, and architecture decisions can be created quickly with AI support, but they remain hard to trace and scattered across Markdown files – knowledge is lost as soon as it is no longer in the context window. arknet turns requirements engineering and architecture knowledge into structured, verifiable data instead of plain text: requirements, use cases, and architecture decisions as a continuously linked knowledge graph, traceable from the requirement to the architecture decision – queryable for both people and AI agents alike. Technically based on RDF/OWL and its own MCP server.
Result: MCP daemon running, Docker image automatically published on GHCR, nine hexagonal modules, eleven ADRs (including an open-core licensing model). Requirements engineering and ubiquitous language hexagon active. Publicly available since 07/2026 as a Community Edition under Apache-2.0 (github.com/kogn-io/arknet), together with the Claude Code plugin and the GHCR image; open-core model.
Label: Java, Maven, RDF, RDF4J, OWL, SPARQL, Model Context Protocol, Spring AI, Docker, GitHub, Git, Claude Code, Obsidian, DDD, Hexagonal Architecture, ArchUnit, JUnit, AssertJ

Developer at agentic-engineer.online
agentic-engineer.online is my publicly testable live demo and at the same time the platform where I show my work. Originally created as a recruitment trial task, I have since continued to run it as my own demo, learning, and product project — on a Hetzner VPS behind a Cloudflare tunnel, through a multi-stage AI-orchestrated deploy pipeline with snapshot rollback. If a deploy step breaks, the system falls back to the last clean snapshot, the script is adjusted, the test repeated — empirical, test-driven, without hand tuning.
- Technically behind it: Python and FastAPI, an OpenRouter model cascade, SQLite persistence, and Cloudflare edge tuning.
- I am the developer and the strictest customer of my own AI work in one person — what started as a prototype has become a tool I use every day and against which I test my own products.
Nisanthan Sivarajah
Last position:
Business Intelligence Consultant (freelance) at NBIC – Nisanthan BI Consulting
Advising companies on building, migrating and optimising BI and reporting landscapes (Power BI, SQL, Python, ETL)
5 client engagements in real estate and finance since 05/2025: taking over and stabilising existing reporting, automating recurring standard and management reports, building cash-flow models
Proposal and feasibility assessments for BI and reporting projects
Using AI-assisted development (Claude Code) to accelerate automation, tooling and web/app development
Custom ERP system
Problem: A client's core processes ran on scattered, siloed Excel files with no central data storage – error-prone, hard to scale and impossible to analyse end-to-end.
Approach: Captured the business processes and requirements, modelled the data and developed iteratively together with the business team.
Implementation: Built a tailored, web-based ERP system with a central database, role-based modules and automated reporting – delivered using AI-assisted development in Claude Code.
Timesheet app
Starting point: Time tracking based on an overgrown, macro-heavy Excel template – maintenance-intensive, single-user and error-prone.
Implementation: Migrated all functionality and VBA macros into a standalone web app with central data storage, multi-user support and automated reporting.
Cash-flow modelling
Starting point: The existing cash-flow model covered standing investments only; project developments were missing from steering.
Implementation: Built and extended the CF model to include project-development cash flows.
Optimisation: Reviewed and optimised existing CF models and expanded the KPI outputs for reporting and steering.

About the technology
What Markdown does
Markdown is a lightweight way to write formatted text with plain characters. Teams use it for READMEs, product docs, changelogs, help articles, notes, and content that must stay easy to edit in Git. Strong specialists know how to keep structure clean and readable.
Common uses
- Product and engineering documentation
- Knowledge bases and internal wikis
- Release notes and change logs
- Blog drafts and editorial workflows
- Technical content in Git-based tools
Ecosystem and tools
Markdown often lives inside GitHub, GitLab, Confluence, Notion, static site generators, and documentation systems. Experts also work with MDX, front matter, linting rules, and publishing pipelines. They know where plain Markdown is enough and where extensions are needed.
Why companies hire help
Companies bring in freelance Markdown specialists when documentation needs to be structured fast, migrated from other formats, or cleaned up across many files. This is common in Germany for product teams, software vendors, and internal platforms that need English content, German content, or both. The goal is consistency, not decoration.
What strong professionals deliver
A strong Markdown expert writes for reuse. They use headings, lists, links, tables, code blocks, and callouts in a disciplined way, so content renders well across tools. They also spot broken structure, inconsistent style, and migration issues before they spread.
How to choose the right fit
- Clear grasp of Markdown syntax and extensions
- Experience with documentation workflows and version control
- Careful formatting across editors and publishing tools
- Ability to keep content simple, stable, and consistent
- Comfort working with technical teams and content owners
Frequently asked questions
Not sure where to start with Markdown? These answers cover the essentials.
Markdown is used to write formatted text that stays easy to edit and move between tools. Companies use it for documentation, READMEs, knowledge bases, changelogs, and content that lives in Git or a docs site. It is popular when teams want clean structure without a heavy editor.
Markdown is simpler and more portable than most rich text editors. It fits well when content must be versioned, reviewed in pull requests, or published across tools without layout surprises. Rich text is better for highly visual editing, but Markdown is usually stronger for technical content and long-term maintenance.
A company should bring in a Markdown freelancer when docs need cleanup, migration, or a more consistent structure. It also helps when a team is setting up a new documentation workflow or converting content from Word, HTML, or another editor. Freelancers are useful when internal experts know the product but do not want to spend time on formatting details.
A strong Markdown specialist often also understands Git, documentation systems, content structure, and basic HTML or MDX. For bigger projects, experience with GitHub, GitLab, static site generators, or editorial workflows helps a lot. Those skills make it easier to keep content stable as it moves through review and publishing.
Markdown is often enough for the main text of API documentation, especially for guides, examples, and reference pages. Many teams combine it with tools that add navigation, front matter, or generated reference sections. The right setup depends on how much of the docs should be manual versus generated.
Yes, Markdown work is very remote-friendly because the files are text-based and easy to review in shared tools. For teams in Germany, remote collaboration usually works well as long as the specialist can follow the preferred language, style, and review process. On-site help is only needed when the team wants close workshops or content audits.
Look at how the Markdown expert structures content, not just whether the syntax is correct. Good work stays readable in different editors, uses headings consistently, handles links and lists cleanly, and avoids fragile formatting. Ask for sample docs, migration examples, or a short test task to see how they think.
Markdown and MDX overlap, but they are not the same. Markdown is the simpler writing format, while MDX lets teams mix Markdown with components and more dynamic content. If your docs are mostly text, Markdown is enough; if your site needs interactive pieces, MDX may be the better fit.
The average hourly rate of freelancers in Germany who have used Markdown in their recent projects is 93 €, which corresponds to a daily rate of about 745 € based on an 8-hour working day.
