About Me

I am a business-minded software development professional, skilled in leading distributed development teams and bringing development teams close to business.
I have strong experience in SaaS product development, process optimization, change leadership and cloud transformation.

Although I have always had wide responsibilities in my roles, developing performant maintainable software in general has been the focus and my passion. I lead by example and motivate people to use their strengths to achieve common goals.

I am available as a freelancer for hands-on technical lead roles, for software architect, and for challenging development roles.
