Freelancer

I started my journey as a freelancer mid of 2023 fulltime. With this journey came other life changes. I moved to Spain, started to become more interested in writing and the entrepreneurial world.

• In 2023/06, started my freelancer journey.
• End of 2023, decided to leave Germany next year.
• Beginning of 2024, moved to Spain, living in a camper van.

Now I do help my clients build reliable, fast software utilizing powerful, established tools like PostgresSQL, React, Next.js, TypeScript and most importantly Rust. I do write about challenges that occur in my day to day on my blog.

Throughout my two years, I was able to work on some hard problems: decoupling a decade old monolith into microservices, working with a federated GraphQL API, learning and occasionally managing a Kubernetes cluster, building and implementing a design system, incrementally migrating individual components and routes to a new framework and infrastructure, and more.

medienpark GmbH

Full-Stack Web Developer, 2016 — 2020

My first job as a developer was at medienpark GmbH, a digital agency near my hometown. One of the best ways to learn, is to learn on the job. Working in an agency is not the best paid job, but it allowed me to learn a lot, touch a lot of projects and learn a lot when it comes to developing software.
