03 ROLES

04.2024–now

PCG GmbH

Architected a multi-tenant customer data platform serving ~250 enterprise accounts; designed cross-account AWS state mirroring with cached security-group snapshots to maintain read consistency under API rate limits, eliminating service failures caused by AWS API throttling.
Led full system rebuild of a B2C creator platform with a 12-person team over 12 months; defined service boundaries, data ownership contracts, and rollout strategy for a system that scaled to 25,000 registered users and 100 creators.
Designed an idempotent token-ledger and referral-attribution system built on at-least-once delivery plus idempotent processing, preventing double-spend and ensuring auditable revenue attribution across asynchronous settlement flows.
Took full systems ownership of a stalled sustainability-reporting product mid-delivery, re-established delivery confidence, and shipped to 350 enterprise customers.
Defined and enforced the engineering hiring bar as technical evaluator across 3 hiring rounds; standardised system-design and distributed-systems assessment criteria.

10.2022–03.2024

Devoteam GmbH

Designed and implemented 4 microservices for a meter-collection and analytics platform serving utility field employees; established service contracts and fault-isolation boundaries between collection, processing, and reporting tiers.
Built interpolation and anomaly-detection pipelines for real-time utility data, including pipeline-leak identification; applied backpressure-aware processing to handle uneven ingestion rates from distributed field sensors.
Coordinated integration across a 6-person cross-functional team (2 frontend, 3 backend, 1 data), resolving systemic consistency failures between pipeline stages and unblocking delivery.
Mentored a junior colleague through technical growth via 1:1s and code review as she progressed to a senior role.

10.2019–08.2022

code'n'ground AG

Primary developer on a DiGA-track snoring-therapy app requiring deterministic, reproducible exercise state across 49 exercises and a 3-month program. Correctness guarantees mandated by the app's medical device classification; shipped to 100k+ downloads.
Translated a clinical scheduling algorithm into conflict-free deterministic logic with prerequisite-gated progression and category isolation across motor, holding, and utensil-based exercise tracks.
Built a configurable emotion-recognition assessment tool for University of Ulm psychology researchers with automated, reproducible reporting; the reproducible configuration model enabled Phase 2 expansion.
Introduced Angular as the company's first SPA framework, migrating 2 client projects off legacy jQuery/CodeIgniter to component-driven architecture.
Developed a waste-disposal marketplace matching companies with certified disposers for regulated waste categories, enforcing compliance routing logic at the matching layer.
Completed an intensive software engineering curriculum covering full-stack web development including JavaScript, PHP, and React.
Took ownership of a multi-tenant e-commerce platform through initial implementation and ongoing maintenance; first exposure to shared-state isolation across tenant boundaries.
Built a planting machine configurator enabling modular equipment assembly from validated compatible components.
