Experience & Resume

Public career profile focused on Cloud, Azure, .NET, AI, software architecture, distributed systems, and engineering leadership

This page is a concise overview of my background, technical focus, leadership experience, and public work.

I am a Senior Software Engineer & Team Lead based between Karlsruhe and Pforzheim with 10+ years of experience building backend-heavy, cloud-native, and IoT-driven software systems.

My work sits at the intersection of Cloud, Azure, .NET, AI integration, software architecture, distributed systems, and engineering leadership.

Today, I lead a cross-functional engineering team at Medialesson GmbH while staying hands-on in architecture, delivery, and development. I am intentionally growing toward broader Engineering Manager responsibilities without losing technical depth.
