I'm a hands-on engineering leader and software architect based in Munich. I code daily, favor pragmatic problem-solving over rigid frameworks, and specialize in architecting scalable backends (Temporal, PostgreSQL) and modern frontends (React, Next.js). By integrating AI tools into our daily workflow, I multiply team velocity — whether leading a growing team of 9 or executing lean with 3. Deeply rooted in open source and optimistic by default.
