Background

I work as a full stack developer with a strong focus on frontend, building Angular applications that integrate seamlessly with Java-based backend services. In recent years, I have mainly worked in environments with microservices, API-first design, and cloud-native deployments on Azure. I design and build both frontend and backend, set up CI/CD pipelines, and ensure everything is well-structured and manageable from development through to production. In doing so, I make extensive use of modern tooling such as Angular Signals, Spring Boot, Docker, and OpenAPI.
 

In my work, I’m known for connecting technology and business effectively. I translate complex challenges into concrete solutions that are understandable and usable for end users. I often take a guiding role in technical decisions and architecture, while keeping a pragmatic mindset. Whether it’s building a greenfield application or evolving an existing landscape, I focus on creating a solid foundation while keeping a sharp eye on user experience.
 

What characterizes me is a hands-on mentality and strong team involvement. I enjoy sharing knowledge, actively contribute ideas for improvement, and take responsibility for the bigger picture. I work in a structured way with attention to quality and testability, while always staying practical in my approach. Ultimately, my goal is to build software that works, is understood, and delivers real value.
