Profile

Passionate about code and tricky problems, and strong teamwork.

From .NET developer through Team Lead and CTO to Freelancer: For over 16 years, I have been driven by solving tough problems, diving into new business domains, and building software alongside motivated teams.

About me & my mindset

As a freelance Senior Software Engineer & Architect, I dive deep into complex software landscapes. I enjoy understanding elusive legacy bugs just as much as learning completely new business domains. I thrive working directly alongside energetic teams where I can share experience, mentor junior engineers, and build dependable backend systems together.
