I am a software engineer and entrepreneur focused on cloud platforms, developer experience, and data-driven products. I enjoy turning complex technical problems into practical, maintainable solutions.
Work
My experience spans software engineering, cloud and DevOps consulting, and technical leadership. I have designed cloud-native platforms, built delivery automation and internal developer tooling, and helped teams improve how they develop and operate software.
At Microsoft, I worked with engineering teams on application modernization and platform projects. I also contributed to EVE, an accessibility product that creates live captions and translations, gaining hands-on experience building and evolving software in a small, fast-moving team.
Ventures
I co-founded mint software, a technology company centered on applied engineering and data-driven products. I am also a co-founder of mint future, the company behind wirkaufendeinethg.de, a digital platform for services around electric mobility and emissions trading.
These ventures have given me a broader perspective on product development, sustainable business models, and the realities of building technology companies.
Community
I enjoy sharing what I learn through mentoring, teaching, open-source contributions, and technical talks. I have volunteered with ReDI School, taught introductory programming to newcomers pursuing careers in technology, and helped host the PowerShell User Group Munich.
I also contributed to the DevOps Dojo, a public Microsoft Learn path for building multidisciplinary DevOps teams through shared practices, processes, and tools.
Credentials
Selected certifications I have earned include:
- MCSA: Cloud Platform
- Microsoft Certified: Azure Solutions Architect Expert
- Microsoft Certified: DevOps Engineer Expert
- Certified Kubernetes Application Developer (CKAD)
My complete public badge history is available on Credly (formerly Acclaim).
Background
My career began in commercial and account-management roles before I moved into software engineering. I hold a B.Sc. in Business Informatics, with a focus on web and software engineering. That mix of business, product, and technical experience continues to shape how I approach my work.
