Products that ship. Systems that scale.
I build your product and the platform under it: Kubernetes, Nix, continuous delivery. Hands-on in your team, and the knowledge stays. Hamburg & remote.
Freelance Platform & Product Engineer with 15+ years in product development, platform architecture and tech leadership — from startup to systems at 100M+ requests a day.

Deployed to 700+ retail locations at Fielmann
What I do
Hands-on, alongside your team, so the knowledge stays when I leave.
-
Modern Product Engineering
End to end, from infrastructure to UI: I strengthen your team’s strategic problem solving, agile development in small increments and close ties to real user feedback.
-
Continuous Delivery
From brittle release pipelines to continuous delivery: trunk-based development, reliable test automation and one automated path to production.
-
Platform Engineering
Developer platforms and toolchains your teams own: Kubernetes, GitOps and reproducible environments with Nix and devenv, so every developer and every CI run uses the same tools.
