I am generally open to be contacted about new opportunities.
In my new role at the company I’m still actively building new features for my team. However, my focus is also on leading engineers and fostering a culture of learning. I help our stakeholders evaluate business proposals and then make technical plans to implement them.
During this time we have launched a brand-new app and recently re-launched our main app. Both projects - spanning months each - allowed us to continuously replace legacy systems with better fitting and more maintainable ones.
My work was twofold. Primarily, I owned the backend side of my cross-functional teams domains. This meant planning, implementing and observing modules, each serving features for our customers.
Secondary was the work to simplify the existing system, made up of a Ruby monolith and microservices with lots of tech debt. We were archiving this by integrating commodity software, rewriting legacy systems to better fit their domain and thoroughly documenting the rest. All under the banner of “Delightfully Boring”.
I helped built a platform to enable medical professionals to find the best doctors for our customers.
Led small teams in design and implementation of services using micro-frontends following the Shape-Up methodology. Took quick ownership of cloud architecture and Kubernetes cluster. Extended tooling and CI/CD pipelines.
My responsibilities changed as the company shifted to more IoT related projects. I transitioned into the leading role in Web Development, building scalable real-time servers for managing IoT devices deployed in the field.
When necessary, I supported other colleagues with backend, frontend and mobile projects. I also administrated and provisioned most of our server infrastructure.
I worked primarily as an Android Developer on customer projects. Managed my own projects and created requirements together with stakeholders, then implemented them.
When required, I did additional Web Development, both front- and back-end. The rest of the time I worked on tooling, libraries and infrastructure.
My first project was the backend and mobile application for a document exchange software.
For the second project I joined a small team of Android developers to create a shopping application for a big Sportswear reseller.
I joined a project working on the backend application for a local newspaper’s mobile app. Here, I extended the API with new features and made security improvements to the system.
A lot of overlap with previous education. Enjoyed low-level programming, theoretical comp-sci, IT security and real-time systems.
I completed multiple websites projects for small to large businesses. This meant building the frontend based on provided designs and implementing custom behavior via plugins for Contao CMS.
Learned the basics in programming, databases, networking, operating-systems, electronics and design. Finished top of my class.
I created Flash animations and interactive page elements for customer websites. Also did research work for a searchable register of local businesses.
After the internship, I actually first started coding on my own.
