What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build backend products and developer tools where automation, clean code, documented workflows, open source, and AI-assisted development can make teams more productive.

At Flagbit, I built Shopware 6 online shops for leading brands across storefronts in more than six languages while working on real client projects throughout my dual training.

I initiated CmsExtractor, a developer-experience tool that turns custom Shopware 6 CMS blocks into reusable, versioned plugins and compares new requests against a central plugin repository via CLI. It reduced development effort by around 60% and eliminated duplicate work across more than 20 requests.

I'm drawn to practical automation, clean architecture, documented tooling, and open-source learning. My projects include Rust CLI tooling, tested PHP applications, Docker deployments, API automation, and AI-assisted development workflows with Claude Code.
