06/2025 – TODAY:
- Architecting and building a new AI-native procurement platform with document intelligence, an agent orchestration layer using Mastra and LLM-based workflow automation across supplier, intake and category management use-cases
- Shipped agentic engineering workflows across the development team, enabling LLM-assisted code generation and review automation, measurably reducing cycle time on repetitive development tasks
- Migrating the Design System from Material UI to shadcn/ui with Tailwind, improving consistency and reducing frontend build overhead

Open-Source Software Engineer & Maintainer at Stealth Startup
Independent, part-time open-source engineering focused on build-time tooling for Next.js, React, MDX, and JavaScript/TypeScript compiler pipelines.
Built next-slug-splitter to optimize content-driven Next.js applications. It analyzes MDX content at build time, resolves component usage, and generates route-specific handlers so pages avoid sharing the full catch-all component bundle.

Own architecture, API design, implementation, automated testing, npm publishing, documentation, demos, and performance benchmarking.
Building blocks:
remark-scoped-mdx: Context-aware AST transformations with nested scope isolation, typed component registries, and prop inference.
recma-component-resolver: Dependency-graph analysis and selective component forwarding across nested MDX includes.
recma-static-refiner: Build-time prop extraction, schema validation, derivation, and pruning.
estree-util-to-static-value and object-graph-delta: Safe static evaluation and deterministic, cycle-safe structural diffing.

Frameworks: TypeScript · Next.js · React · MDX
Compiler tooling: Unified · Remark · Recma · MDAST · ESTree · ts-morph · esbuild
Competencies: Static analysis · AST traversal and transformation · dependency graphs · code generation · schema validation · route and bundle splitting
Tooling: Vitest · tsup · npm · performance benchmarking

About the technology
What Material UI does
Material UI, commonly called MUI, is an open-source React component library based on Google’s Material Design principles. It provides ready-made buttons, forms, navigation, dialogs, data displays and layout primitives for web applications. Teams use it to deliver consistent interfaces without creating every visual pattern from scratch.
Interfaces it supports
Material UI fits customer portals, SaaS products, internal tools, commerce applications and data-heavy dashboards. Its responsive components support desktop and mobile layouts, while theming lets teams align the interface with an existing brand. MUI X adds advanced capabilities such as data grids, date and time pickers, and charts for more demanding products.
- Create responsive React screens from design files
- Build reusable forms, tables and navigation flows
- Extend components for domain-specific product needs
- Apply themes, typography, spacing and design tokens
Ecosystem and tooling
Strong work with Material UI usually includes React, TypeScript, JavaScript, HTML and CSS. Professionals also work with Next.js, Vite, Storybook, React Hook Form, routing libraries and testing tools such as Jest and React Testing Library. They understand MUI’s styling approaches, theme APIs, component composition and the differences between the core library and MUI X.
When companies need specialists
Freelance expertise helps when a product team must establish a design system, modernize inconsistent screens or deliver a new React product without slowing its roadmap. It is also useful when a migration from another component library requires careful visual and behavioral alignment. Companies in Germany may value professionals who can work remotely across teams or collaborate on site, with clear English or German communication.
- A shared component library is missing or difficult to maintain
- Existing Material UI screens need accessibility and responsive improvements
- MUI X features require reliable configuration and performance tuning
- Design and frontend teams need a practical implementation bridge
What strong professionals deliver
The best specialists treat Material UI as a system rather than a collection of isolated widgets. They create reusable components, document decisions, keep theme overrides controlled and preserve upgrade paths. They also test keyboard behavior, focus states, loading states, error handling and mobile layouts instead of judging quality by appearance alone.
Evaluating project fit
Review work that shows complete user flows, not only attractive screenshots. Ask how the professional handles accessibility, responsive breakpoints, server-side rendering, bundle size and visual regression testing. A capable specialist can explain when to use a standard MUI component, when to compose it, and when a custom solution is justified. They should also be comfortable integrating APIs, authentication flows and the product’s existing design language.
Frequently asked questions
Quick answers to the questions that come up most around Material UI.
Material UI is used to build React interfaces with reusable components such as forms, menus, dialogs, tables and responsive layouts. It is common in SaaS products, portals, dashboards and internal business applications where consistent interaction patterns matter.
MUI offers a broad component set, a mature theming model and close alignment with Material Design. Alternatives such as Ant Design, Chakra UI or Tailwind CSS may suit different visual systems or styling preferences, so the choice depends on accessibility needs, design direction and existing code.
Material UI work benefits from strong React and TypeScript skills, plus knowledge of CSS, responsive design and accessibility. Experience with Next.js, Storybook, testing libraries, form handling, API integration and MUI X is useful for complete product delivery.
A small interface can be handled by a professional who understands React composition, theming and responsive behavior. Larger systems need someone who has managed reusable component libraries, design tokens, accessibility reviews, performance concerns and upgrades across a shared codebase.
Material UI projects are well suited to remote collaboration because designs, components and code can be reviewed asynchronously. Teams in Germany should agree on communication language, review routines, repository access and working hours before development starts; on-site work is mainly valuable for workshops or close product discovery.
MUI X can be a practical choice when an application needs advanced grids, date pickers, charts or related data interactions. A specialist should check licensing, feature fit, accessibility and performance before adopting it, especially when the product has complex permissions or very large data sets.
Ask for examples of responsive flows and inspect more than the visual finish. A strong Material UI professional can explain component reuse, theme structure, keyboard navigation, testing, loading and error states, and how custom styling remains maintainable.
Define the React stack, target screens, design references, browser support and expected integration points. For MUI work, also clarify whether the professional will extend an existing theme, create a design system, use MUI X, or migrate components from another library.
The average hourly rate of freelancers in Germany who have used Material UI in their recent projects is 90 €, which corresponds to a daily rate of about 721 € based on an 8-hour working day.
