Timo J.
Last position:
Co-Founder & Technical Lead at cubular GmbH
Co-founded a software agency building custom web and cross-platform products. I owned the technical decisions across the whole portfolio and led 12 people, while carrying delivery planning, process and client relationships for 11 clients across 3 industries.
Technical leadership: owned the technical decisions for the codebase across every project — stack, architecture, code conventions and the tooling the team worked with — and led the developers on how work got built through code reviews, pair programming and mentoring across a team ranging from junior to senior, keeping the codebase coherent as the portfolio and the team grew
Delivery planning against the financial plan: built the company's financial plan and derived from it the billable hours each developer had to reach per month and the hours each project could absorb to stay within budget; planned capacity and scope against those figures and negotiated budgets and delivery dates directly with clients
Client ownership: technical contact across the portfolio — requirements gathering and prioritisation, scoping and estimates, timeline communication, budget negotiation, and consistent transparency throughout delivery
Team and people: owned the hiring and interview process end to end and took responsibility for offboarding where it was needed; designed an onboarding that got new developers productive within 1–2 days; cleared blockers daily and kept a close eye on where effort was creating value and where it was not
Process ownership: consolidated a micro-service landscape spread over 15+ repositories into a single monorepo, cutting backend development time by ~40% and simplifying releases for 6 engineers; set up deployment pipelines with GitHub Actions and GitLab CI; ran retrospectives and turned the feedback into concrete changes; introduced AI agents into day-to-day development
Delivered short-staffed: when the team shrank from 8 developers to 2, restructured scope, introduced AI-assisted development to hold the schedule and took on Go backend work alongside my own frontend scope
Architecture and code: defined the architecture for every project in the portfolio — the structure the rest of the team built within — and wrote roughly 90% of the frontend code myself, from SSR applications with Next.js and Remix to cross-platform apps with Capacitor
From zero to production: took a practice management platform — administration, inventory, integrated online shop, chat messenger — from an empty repository to production. Live in 7 markets with at least 7 more coming up, serving tens of thousands of users
Delivery under pressure: built and shipped a replacement online shop for a Fortune 250 client in 4 days, restoring order intake while their global shops had been offline for several weeks
Design system: built a cross-project design system used across 7 products, so new projects and features started from a shared, consistent base
Cross-platform and real-time: built iOS and Android apps with Capacitor for a client live event with 1,000+ participants — web sockets and push notifications for real-time content, Stripe payments supporting PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay and cards
Key technologies: React, TypeScript, Next.js, Remix, GraphQL, ConnectRPC, Redux, Zustand, Go, Node.js, Turborepo, Nx, Capacitor, Ionic, WebSockets, Stripe, PostgreSQL, Playwright, Cypress, Vitest, Storybook, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot

About the technology
What it is
Responsive Web Design creates websites and interfaces that adapt to screen size, input method and browsing context. Flexible layouts, scalable media and responsive CSS keep content usable on phones, tablets, laptops and wide displays. The approach combines visual design, front-end implementation and careful testing.
What it builds
Responsive Web Design supports marketing sites, online shops, editorial platforms, booking journeys, customer portals and web applications. Strong specialists translate brand requirements into clear page structures that remain easy to use across devices.
- Fluid grids and flexible components
- Responsive navigation and content hierarchy
- Touch-friendly forms and interaction states
- Performance-conscious images and media
Tools and skills
The work commonly involves semantic HTML, modern CSS, CSS Grid, Flexbox and media queries. Specialists may also use Sass, design systems, Figma, browser developer tools and component frameworks such as React, Vue or Angular. Accessibility, SEO, testing and performance are closely connected to the implementation.
When to bring in experts
Companies often need freelance expertise when a website is difficult to use on mobile devices, when a redesign must preserve existing content, or when a design system needs consistent responsive rules. Hamburg organisations serving commerce, logistics, media and professional services can benefit from specialists who understand both local collaboration and remote delivery.
- Auditing layouts across browsers and breakpoints
- Converting fixed designs into flexible interfaces
- Improving mobile usability and page speed
- Establishing reusable responsive components
Quality signals
Strong professionals begin with content priorities and real user journeys rather than isolated screen sizes. They explain layout decisions, test with realistic content, check keyboard and screen-reader access, and verify behaviour on physical devices. Clean structure, maintainable CSS and clear handover documentation matter as much as visual polish.
Working together
A responsive project works best when goals, target audiences, content ownership and design assets are clear from the start. Remote collaboration is practical through shared design files, issue tracking and review sessions; on-site work in Hamburg can help when teams need close workshops. Look for specialists who communicate trade-offs clearly and leave behind an interface the internal team can extend.
Frequently asked questions
Quick answers to the questions that come up most around Responsive Web Design.
Responsive Web Design is used to make websites and web applications adapt to different screens, browsers and input methods. It helps companies deliver one consistent experience without maintaining separate desktop and mobile sites.
Responsive Web Design uses fluid layouts and flexible rules that adjust continuously, while adaptive design typically serves predefined layouts for selected screen ranges. Responsive work is often easier to maintain, but the right choice depends on the existing system, content and performance goals.
A strong Responsive Web Design specialist should understand semantic HTML, modern CSS, accessibility, performance and browser testing. Experience with design systems, Figma, SEO and component frameworks can also improve delivery when the project includes a larger digital product.
The required background depends on scope and risk. A landing page may need focused layout expertise, while a complex portal benefits from a Responsive Web Design professional who has handled content-heavy interfaces, reusable components and close collaboration with design and product teams.
Yes. Responsive Web Design is well suited to remote collaboration through design files, repositories, tickets and browser-based reviews. For Hamburg teams, on-site workshops can still be useful when stakeholders need to align on content structure, accessibility or a design system.
Review how the specialist tests real content across browsers, screen sizes, zoom levels and keyboard use. Good Responsive Web Design work also shows clear information hierarchy, fast loading, accessible interactions and CSS that the team can maintain.
Yes. Responsive Web Design is an approach, not a replacement for a framework. React, Vue, Angular and similar tools still need responsive layout rules, accessible components and careful handling of content across devices.
A Responsive Web Design specialist should clarify target audiences, supported browsers, content priorities, accessibility expectations, analytics needs and who owns design decisions. It is also important to agree on review devices, design-system boundaries and how responsive behaviour will be documented.
