About Robert

Experienced Backend and Data Engineer focused on developing scalable, fault-tolerant backends for data-intensive applications and implementing these applications themselves. Combining solid software engineering practices with a deep understanding of data engineering results in robust systems that efficiently process high data volumes and reliably provide them for analysis, automation, and operational workloads.

Focus areas include the design and implementation of service-oriented architectures (e.g., microservices), the development of data and integration pipelines (ETL/ELT), the modeling of large datasets, and the construction of data apps and automations along complete data value chains.
