How I work

Small surface, deep ownership

One engineer, end to end. No handoffs, no account managers, one person who answers for the code.

Ship weekly, demo always

Working software every week. You see it running, not summarized in a status report.

Boring tech, exciting products

Proven stacks, careful architecture. New ideas belong in the product, not in the infrastructure.

AI-assisted, engineer-owned

AI tooling runs through how I design and build. Nothing ships that I have not reviewed, tested, and can walk you through line by line.

Swiss contracts. GDPR- and revDSG-aware engineering. Work performed from Switzerland.
