Clean Code Developer Team Lead diva-e Karlsruhe (Germany)
More About MeI like coding software and exploring new technologies since 1996 when I wrote my first QBasic program. Nowadays, after more than 20 years, computer science and technology still fascinate me. The power of building new solutions that provide elevated customer and business value impresses me. Working with teams of nice people interested in their domains makes me glad and is one of the reasons why I like my job.
I'm a clean code developer with a broad knowledge of frameworks, architectures and tools around the Java and Web ecosystems.
I lead a team of 8 talented developers at diva-e Karlsruhe and I manage the diva-e | Tech & Insights Twitter channel including technical blog posts.
I regularly attend developer conferences and held talks at Java Forum Stuttgart, Java User Group Karlsruhe and Karlsruher Entwicklertag.
In addition, I wrote articles for Java Magazin, JavaSPEKTRUM, Java aktuell, dotnetpro and web & mobile developer.
Starting as a self-employed developer in the early 2000's I've had the opportunity of working together with many people in different domains and software landscapes.
