I'm a software developer:

Ever since 2000 I enjoy helping German, European and global clients with real-world tech & dev challenges, producing and delivering in a lean, timely, performant, efficient, cleanly-structured, fully documented and accounted-for manner:

• backend: microservices, middleware libs, custom high-perf tooling
• full-stack; mobile-ready progressive web apps & sites
• API interop, service integrations, concurrent line-of-business systems
• legacy migrations, code / performance optimizations / refactoring
• to a lesser degree, but equally interested-in: native apps & GUI components; realtime, massively parallel GPGPU

employing various languages/stacks.

Rather than the ticking-of-boxes and collecting-of-certificates, I'm primarily offering my time-honed, experience-sharpened qualities and services as: fast thinker, real problem solver, disciplined producer who ships, obsessively-passionate polyglot programmer throughout 2 decades of changing trends, swift adopter and grasper of the tech and paradigms required in the project at-hand, team player and clear communicator.

Born in 1982, programming since 1998. Generous experience working with all manner of client sizes and industries.

• 2005 B.Sc. graduation, "2^nd best" thesis (for Persient.NET object persistence framework)
• 2005-2006 Potsdam/Berlin: made 2 popular Windows shareware apps

• 2007-2010 Further honed my big-data & C# .NET & web dev skills in the booming MS SharePoint space
• Since 2008 kept up with alternative (to the MS ecosystem) languages, frameworks, stacks, tech

• 2011-2015 Left Berlin: remote work from SE Asia, Sinai and elsewhere, as owner-developer of 5 popular SharePoint-Tools.NET products; open-source work in Go and real-time 3D programming

Ich bin Software-Entwickler:

Ich unterstütze Kunden in D-A-CH, EU und weltweit mittels diverser Sprachen & Stacks bei der schlanken, zeitnahen, performanten, effizienten, sauber strukturierten und klar dokumentierten Entwicklung / Umsetzung von:

• Backend: Micro-Services, Middleware, In-House-Tooling
• Full-stack; mobile-first, "progressive" Web-Apps & -Sites
• REST APIs, Interop, Service-Integrationen, konkurrente Geschäftsanwendungen
• Codebase-Migrationen und Code- / Performance-Optimierung bzw. -Refactoring
• In der Praxis seltener, aber gleichsam interessiert an: Native Apps & GUI-Komponenten; hardwarenaher, massiv-paralleler Echtzeit-GPGPU

Statt Zertifikate-anzusammeln und Kreuzchen-zu-erfüllen, biete ich vorrangig meine praxiserprobten und erfahrungsreichen Qualitäten und Leistungen als: schneller Denker, proaktiver Problemlöser, produktiver "Fertigsteller", authentisch-begeisterter Programmierer durch 2 Jahrzehnte kontinuierlicher Tech-Trendwenden, rascher Erfasser und Vertiefer der im Projekt erforderlichen Technologien und Paradigmen, und teamfähiger klarer Kommunikator an.

Jahrgang 1982, programmiere seit 1998. Reichlich Erfahrung mit Kunden aller Größenordnungen und Sparten.
