René Wick
Last position:
Development of an AI-supported system for lead generation
As part of an in-house development project, a pipeline for automated lead generation was created as the second stage of a preceding system for project monitoring. Based on a list of freelance project URLs (freelancermap), qualified lead records are generated, including company, contact person, official and personal email address, and the appropriate form of address (informal/formal). The technologies used were Python (openpyxl, requests) as well as an LLM agent workflow in VS Code (GitHub Copilot Chat) with a custom slash command and extensive rule set; search APIs (Serper.dev) are connected for research. My tasks included the full concept and development. The core is a rule set of around 480 lines that guides the LLM agent deterministically through extraction, website and email lookup, duplicate matching (against existing provider lists), and the creation of a structured JSON output. Deterministic steps (Excel matching, web/email search, pattern derivation) were moved into Python helper scripts. Other requirements included validating the results through versioned blind runs against a reference, iterative refinement of the rule set, and a swappable search provider layer for cost and stability reasons.

About the technology
SVG basics
SVG, or Scalable Vector Graphics, is a vector image format for logos, icons, charts, illustrations, and motion graphics. It stays sharp at any size and works well in browsers, design systems, and product interfaces. Strong SVG specialists know when vector assets beat raster files.
Where it fits
SVG is used in websites, apps, dashboards, email assets, and branded content. It is also common in data visualisation, icon libraries, and lightweight animation work.
- Logos and icon sets
- UI illustrations and empty states
- Charts, maps, and infographics
- Animated interface details
Tooling and workflow
Good work with SVG depends on more than export settings. Experts clean up paths, reduce file size, manage strokes and fills, and prepare assets for use in code or design tools such as Figma, Illustrator, and browser-based build flows.
When companies hire help
Teams bring in freelance SVG experts when brand assets need a refresh, when interfaces need faster loading graphics, or when design and frontend work are not lining up. In Germany, this often comes up for product teams, agencies, and media projects that need precise handoff and clear communication.
- Rebuild legacy logos and illustrations
- Fix inconsistent exports from design files
- Prepare SVGs for responsive layouts
- Add simple animation or interaction
What strong specialists do
A strong SVG specialist understands viewBox, aspect ratio, accessibility, and the limits of filters, masks, and complex paths. They know how to keep assets readable in code, style them with CSS when needed, and avoid bloated files that slow down delivery.
Collaboration and quality
The best results come from experts who can work with designers, frontend specialists, and brand teams without losing the original intent. Look for clean source files, sensible naming, dependable optimisation, and SVG output that behaves well across browsers and devices.
Frequently asked questions
Curious about SVG? Here are the answers that come up again and again.
SVG is used for logos, icons, illustrations, charts, maps, and interface details that must stay sharp at any size. It is also common for simple motion graphics and data visuals in web products. Because it is text-based, it is easy to inspect, optimise, and integrate into front-end work.
SVG is better for graphics that need to scale cleanly, such as logos and icons. PNG or WebP can be better for photos and complex artwork with many colors and textures. A strong specialist chooses the format based on the asset, not by default.
A good SVG expert usually knows browser rendering, accessibility, CSS, and basic animation. Many also work comfortably with Figma, Illustrator, and front-end handoff. If the asset set is part of a product, the freelancer should understand design systems and component workflows.
Simple icon cleanup may only need a specialist who knows optimisation and export settings. More complex work, such as interactive charts or animated illustrations, needs deeper SVG knowledge and strong browser-testing habits. The right level depends on how visible and reusable the assets are.
Yes, SVG work is often well suited to remote collaboration because files, revisions, and feedback are easy to exchange. For teams in Germany, that usually means clear written feedback, version control, and fast turnaround across time zones if needed. On-site sessions can still help when brand alignment is sensitive.
Look at the source files, not just the finished image. A strong SVG specialist delivers clean paths, small file sizes, sensible grouping, and assets that render correctly in the browser. Good work also includes accessible markup and careful handling of strokes, fills, and responsive sizing.
Common issues include messy exports, hidden groups, oversized files, and assets that break when resized. SVG can also cause trouble when filters, masks, or complex effects are used without testing. A capable specialist spots these problems early and simplifies the file without changing the visual result.
Choose SVG when the asset must live in a browser, an app, or a digital product and needs to scale smoothly. It is usually the best fit for logos, icons, and interface graphics that may be styled or animated. For print-only workflows or more complex illustration pipelines, another format may be better.
