Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

I develop software for projects where standard solutions are not sufficient.

My focus is on technically demanding products and special solutions: where multiple technologies, systems, or requirements must work together seamlessly to create a robust product, not just something that works.

I guided a startup through the Corona period and built a SaaS platform that is still in use today. Since then, I have productively implemented software in very different constellations – from C#/.NET and web projects to XR, AR, and data-driven systems.

I am familiar with technical responsibility from various roles: as CTO, Lead Developer, Freelancer, and in coordinating development teams.

In terms of content, I primarily work on .NET/backend systems, web and API products, as well as XR and learning analytics-related solutions, for example in instrumentation, data pipelines, and frameworks.

I work systematically, transparently, pragmatically, and hands-on. My goal is viable solutions, not just fast code.

I look forward to discussing challenging software and product projects.
