About Uwe

Uwe Richter = Diplom-Ingenieurwith a solid, broad-based technical university education, focused on achieving maximum results with limited resources. Engineers solve technical and organizational problems with their structured analytical thinking, meeting deadlines, economically, in compliance with regulations, and with low risk. I always find an optimal solution. Not a narrow-minded engineer who delivers peak performance in a highly specialized area but fails on the periphery.

My decades of experience in IT have taught me:
The biggest challenge is not a programming language, but translating reality into logic. One must see the skeleton behind the chaos and understand the system in its entirety – regardless of short-lived frameworks or buzzwords. Those seeking true problem-solving competence will find it in the mindset, not just in the skill list.

A true IT professional is defined not by the number of frameworks, tools, or programming languages they master, but by their systemic thinking. They immediately see the invisible structures, dependencies, redundancies, and weaknesses of a system behind the surface – regardless of whether it's software or a real-world process.

My brain operates in complete logic: Where an "if" exists, it directly incorporates the "else" to prevent dead ends and logical infinite loops. This ability for object-oriented perception, abstraction, and early error detection is not mere theoretical knowledge from studies. This is precisely where the difference between an IT engineer and a coder lies.

The projects are primarily executed remotely and in compliance with GDPR via VPN and Citrix connections from our company offices in Bangkok, Thailand. Temporary on-site presence at the client's location is possible.
