Contributions
As a member of the Förderverein AWS Community DACH I am actively involved in the AWS community across the German-speaking regions of Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. I also co-organize events for the AWS User Group (UG) Frankfurt, which you can check out on meetup. Here’s a glimpse of some of these events:
Mindset
My goal is to minimize your risks by establishing standards in software architecture and quality, deployment strategies, pipelines, and automation. I am passionate about creating business value by accelerating the delivery of features and bug fixes. My expertise in designing, coding, deploying, running, and monitoring software benefits my clients immensely. To me, programming languages, frameworks, or technologies are simply tools for solving customer problems.
I believe in the value of contributing to the Open Source community, seeing it as both a responsibility and an honor. Together, we can develop software that’s faster, simpler, and more secure.
Those around me gain from the energy and motivation I exude, as well as the precise questions I ask.
I’m not one to shy away from addressing the proverbial elephant in the room.
Free time
In my leisure time, I enjoy martial arts and exploring nature. This includes hiking up Germany’s highest peak, the Zugspitze, with my friends.
I thrive on physical and mental challenges shared with friends, believing that these experiences sharpen my ability to successfully complete projects at a high rate.
