Building the future of hiring with AI. We're making headhunting actually smart — using RAG, vector search, and a lot of coffee to match the right people with the right jobs. It's like Tinder, but for careers (and less awkward).

Took over a team of 5 engineers, grew it to 14 with two EMs reporting to me. Basically went from "we have one team" to "we have a proper engineering org."

• Ripped apart a monolith and rebuilt it as microservices with DDD — the good kind of destruction
• Got us ISO 27001 certified (yes, security can be fun... sometimes)
• Built event-driven architecture on AWS that actually works
• Automated 70% of the boring stuff so people could do interesting work
• Set up proper observability with Prometheus, Grafana & Loki — no more "it works on my machine"

Co-founded the leading NFT infrastructure on Hedera Hashgraph. Raised $600k, built a team of 15 (7 engineers), and scaled infrastructure to handle 300k requests/second. Not bad for a Web3 startup.

• Built everything from zero — infra, team, culture
• Hit 99.99% uptime (those four 9s were hard-earned)
• Kubernetes, microservices, GraphQL — the whole modern stack

Built white-label esports tournament platforms for businesses. Gaming meets B2B — turns out companies love tournaments for engagement.

• Won the Hessen scholarship + multiple startup competition prizes
• Led a small but mighty team of 3 engineers
• Shipped a production-ready platform with enterprise-grade security

My consulting playground. I jump into teams as an EM, tech lead, or IC when they need someone who can hit the ground running.

• Built a wild variety of stuff: fintech flash loans, AI apps, blockchain projects, co-founder matching, real estate AI integrations...
• Mentor engineers and tech leads who want to level up
• Basically: if it's interesting and challenging, I'm in
