01 / about

About Me

I'm a software engineer with over 12 years of experience in full-stack development, DevOps and technical leadership. I've worked across diverse industries from fintech and real estate to maritime trade, and hold a B.Sc. in Computer Science (minor in Mathematics) from the University of Rostock.

As a Senior Consultant at Aclue, I support clients in their development projects across frontend, backend and DevOps, and help them introduce AI and AI-driven development. I also train colleagues and client teams through hands-on workshops and trainings.

Alongside that, I work as a freelancer and advise companies on software development, system design, cloud infrastructure and the use of AI tools across areas such as development, consulting and process optimization.

I'm also passionate about motorsport and sim-racing, and built analytics solutions for the iRacing community and teams from professional motorsport.
