Full-Stack Developer who sweats the details.
Full-stack developer with hands-on experience in PHP (Symfony), JavaScript/TypeScript, Node.js, and React. I build scalable systems, work fluently with MySQL/PostgreSQL, and ship with Docker and Kubernetes - always with a focus on clean code, high performance, and reliability.
How I work.
I care about products that feel fast and effortless. That means clean architecture on the backend, thoughtful APIs in the middle, and responsive, accessible interfaces on the front. I have led the development of scalable web applications, contributed to system architecture and DevOps, and managed CI/CD pipelines end-to-end.
Currently I am a Full-Stack Developer at SJmedia GmbH, building websites and online shops, developing custom modules for PrestaShop and other systems, and using AI-assisted tooling to ship faster without cutting corners.
Where I have worked.
Full-Stack Developer
- Develop websites and online shops with PHP (Symfony, Laravel), JavaScript/TypeScript, and React.js.
- Build custom modules and extensions for PrestaShop and other CMS/shop systems.
- Design and implement REST APIs to integrate diverse systems.
- Contribute to deployment and infrastructure with Docker, Linux servers, Apache and Nginx.
- Use AI tools and automation to boost productivity.
Full-Stack Developer

Principles I build by.
Performance first
Speed is not a finishing touch - it is a design constraint. I optimize databases, queries, and front-end builds so pages load quickly and stay there.
Clean architecture
Maintainable code and clear structure beat clever shortcuts. I build systems that the next developer can understand and extend.
Clear communication
Transparent progress, honest expectations, and no jargon. I keep people in the loop so technical work stays understandable.
Reliable delivery
Automated tests and CI/CD pipelines mean releases are predictable and reversible - fewer surprises, more uptime.
Measurable results
I care about outcomes that matter in practice: faster loads, clearer workflows, less maintenance, and systems that are easier to improve.
Built to last
Security, accessibility, and upgrade-safe patterns from day one - so the work holds up long after launch.
Always learning, always building.
Outside of day-to-day development work, I follow new technologies, tools, and frameworks closely and contribute to open-source projects. Staying hands-on with the wider ecosystem is how I keep my craft sharp and bring fresh ideas back to the work.
I am also exploring how AI-assisted development fits into a real full-stack workflow - using it to ship faster while keeping quality and understanding firmly in human hands.
