Full-spectrum software engineer

I build complete software systems — from robotics and cloud to web, mobile, and AI.

Software engineer with 3+ years shipping production systems. I take products from architecture to deployment — and handle everything in between.

Signal
It starts as a signal.
Binary, voltage, an electrical pulse. The rawest layer of every system I build.
Silicon
Encoded into silicon.
A single chip — logic etched into hardware, the smallest unit of compute.
The board
Assembled onto hardware.
Firmware on ESP32 and STM32, sensors and buses — the machine wakes up.
The cloud
Connected to the cloud.
Microservices, real-time streams and APIs on AWS and GCP tie it all together.
The system
Alive as a full robot.
From signal to a production system that moves, sees, and decides in the real world.
01 — What I do

One partner for the whole stack.

Six practice areas, from embedded hardware to cloud and AI. Pick the world you're in — I own delivery end to end.

01

Web & App Development

Websites, web apps, and cross-platform mobile and desktop apps that ship and scale.

02

Cloud & Backend Engineering

Scalable microservices, APIs, and cloud infrastructure on AWS and GCP.

03

Robotics & IoT Integration

Connecting robots, machines, and IoT devices to software and the cloud.

04

AI & Computer Vision

Computer vision, deep learning, and AI tools — including AI calling and SDR for sales.

05

Business Systems & Automation

CRM, ERP, and SaaS builds that make your tools work together.

06

Technical PM & Consulting

Agile delivery, architecture decisions, and technical leadership for your project.

02 — Selected work

Systems I've shipped.

DRAG · SCROLL
Robotics Backend Cloud

Autonomous Elevator Middleware

Production middleware letting service robots call and ride elevators across buildings — unifying multiple incompatible vendors behind one real-time API.

React Native Electron Realtime

Cross-Platform Robot Ops App

One operations app to dispatch, monitor, and administer a robot fleet — shipped on iOS, Android, and Windows from a single codebase.

Computer Vision YOLOv8 ROS

AUV Docking Detection

Deep-learning vision that lets autonomous underwater vehicles find their docking station — 5,000+ image dataset, trained on HPC, deployed to the edge.

Read case study
ESP32 Embedded C/C++

IoT Automation Modules

Self-built ESP32 modules and REST APIs bridging robots with doors, elevators, lighting and speakers — higher automation, more reliable deployments.

03 — Why me

Rare range, and I own the outcome.

I studied computer science, did deep-learning research at a robotics institute, and shipped production systems as the sole responsible developer and technical consultant — architecture, build, deployment, and the client conversations in between.

Ownership
01

End-to-end delivery

I own architecture, build, deployment, and the client conversation — not just tickets.

02

Hardware to cloud to AI

Rare range: embedded firmware and robots up through cloud backends and vision models.

03

Real production systems

Shipped, running software integrating real machines — not demos or slideware.

04

Business fluency

Certified in project management, fluent in Agile, comfortable bridging business and engineering.

04 — Questions

The things people ask first.

If your question is not here, just ask me directly — I answer every enquiry personally.

What does it cost to work with you?
It depends on scope, but every project starts the same way: a free 30-minute call, then a written proposal with a fixed scope, milestones and a price. Small builds usually run as a fixed-price project; longer engagements work better as a monthly retainer or day rate. You will never get a surprise invoice from me.
How long does a typical project take?
A focused web app or MVP is usually 4–10 weeks from kickoff to production. A single integration or automation can be days. Robotics and hardware work depends on the device and access to it. After the first call I give you a milestone plan with real dates, and you see working software at every milestone, not just at the end.
Do you work with existing teams and codebases?
Yes — a good share of my work is joining an existing codebase, or acting as the technical partner for an agency that needs someone who can own delivery. I am comfortable inheriting undocumented systems, and I will tell you honestly what is worth refactoring and what is worth leaving alone.
Can you sign an NDA, and who owns the code?
I sign NDAs routinely — much of my past work is under one. You own the code, the repositories and the infrastructure accounts. Everything is handed over with documentation and deployment instructions so you are never locked to me.
Where are you based, and does the time zone matter?
I am based in Germany and work remotely with clients worldwide. In practice I overlap with European hours fully and North American mornings comfortably. Communication runs over whatever you already use — Slack, email, Jira — with a written weekly update so you always know where the project stands.
05 — Start a project

Have a project
in mind?

Tell me what you're building and I'll show you how I'd approach it. Intro calls are free — I usually reply within 24–48 hours.
