Working to spread the benefits of digital automation

Transformation of a legacy desktop client for managing 1 million+ e-books into a modern AWS microservice architecture. As Senior Developer, I was responsible for backend APIs, versioned data storage, and automated deployments. Key focus was on clean architecture, high test coverage, and Clean Code principles to ensure scalability for increasing e-book sales.

As Senior Developer in the Public sector, I led diverse projects focusing on integration, process solutions, and custom software (Java, Spring, Quarkus). My role covered the entire software lifecycle, from designing microservice cloud architectures and technical documentation to expert customer consultancy and defect resolution.

Strategic modernization of a public sector routing platform for the automated steering of complex document flows. The redesign as a microservice architecture and the introduction of a specialized validation framework significantly increased process reliability. The use of TDD and automated quality pipelines ensures the long-term maintainability of the business-critical logic.

Long-term full-stack development and technical leadership in diverse client projects. Key areas included the architecture of complex web applications (Spring Boot, PrimeFaces) and the strategic development of CMS-based portals. In addition to technical implementation, I was responsible for mentoring junior developers and establishing internal quality standards.

Comprehensive vocational training as a software developer focusing on full-stack web development (OpenCms, WordPress, JSP/JSTL). I gained proficiency in Java, PHP, and C, as well as hands-on experience in HTML/CSS for various client projects. Basic training in Linux systems, networking, and server infrastructure complemented my profile.
