Software that works — and projects that deliver.
I bring together hands-on engineering and project ownership: for over ten years I've built, planned, and steered software projects — from a mid-sized software house to a globally operating enterprise.
From the first ticket to running it in production.
For over ten years I've worked at the intersection of software development and project ownership — from the first requirement all the way to live operations. I've spent that time in the Braunschweig/Wolfsburg/Hannover region, at a mid-sized software house as well as at a globally operating enterprise.
What interests me is less the role itself and more the question of how an idea becomes a working system — implemented cleanly, and led in a way that a team genuinely enjoys building on.
What matters to me in collaboration: clarify requirements early and honestly, before the first line of code is written — then work pragmatically rather than dogmatically. I use short, agile cycles because they enable fast feedback, not because a framework prescribes them. Rigid hierarchies and bureaucracy aren't my world: in project ownership, I see myself more as an enabler than a controller — a team performs better when it understands decisions instead of just executing them.

What I'm currently working on.
Automotive Security
Developing safety- and security-critical software for an internationally operating automotive group — focused on cryptography and embedded systems in vehicle communication.
What else drives me.
Guitar & Music
Whenever time allows, the guitar is within reach — music as a counterbalance to the screen, often too brief, but never quite gone. Stylistically it's mostly metal, djent, and rock — intricate riffs, odd time signatures, and a good amount of weight in the sound.

Photography
Landscapes, buildings, and details along the way — captured on countless walks over the past years.






Software Development (personal)
Outside of work, I build my own apps and backends for everyday use — from SwiftUI to Python, a playground for current frameworks, with no deadline breathing down my neck.
Guitar Progress↗
iPhone, iPad, and Watch app for tracking your own guitar practice — metronome, practice plans, statistics.
Nvelo
iOS frontend for a personal budgeting tool, backed by my own FastAPI backend.
Provisio
Shared household shopping list with real-time sync across devices and a home screen widget.

Good collaboration starts with a conversation.
