Background
🧬
Experience matters. Over the past 23 years, I have already had the pleasure and privilege of working with and for leading companies, innovative startups, ambitious one-wo:man businesses and large corporations on countless IT projects.
The joy of work. I strive for perfection and try to push boundaries. I always deliver on my promises. And I love it when a plan comes together.
Sharing knowledge. Whenever possible, I contribute to Open Source software. Not to mention that I also maintain some useful side projects with great enthusiasm and a good portion of idealism.

💭 Principles, 🤝 Values and ⚖️ Rules of behavior to which I am committed
Be empathic. Behave in a cooperative and supportive way and communicate in an open and fair manner.
Build confidence in others. Talent wins games, but teamwork wins championships.
Define goals. Time is precious. Don’t waste it.
Listen. Questions are here to be answered.
Good work is hard. Think. Implement. Rethink. Deliver.
Nothing lasts forever. But this doesn’t mean to make any tradeoffs in the first place.
Bugs are annoying. Fix them as soon as possible.
Ship. The goal is always the successful project closure.
Use technology wisely. Digitalization should always make life easier – always.
Look ahead. Craft secure and maintainable applications by using state-of-the art softwaretools.
Don’t stand still. Revise workflows from time to time.
Share knowledge. Learn, teach and build up experience.
Hands-on mentality. Reliability as a virtue.
Face up challenges. The easy way is not always the best way.
Don’t limit the possibilities. Keep the end-users perspective in mind.
It should be fun. Be creative, stay curious and continue exploring. The best is yet to come.
