What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers opportunities for architectural leadership and team mentorship, within a collaborative and innovative environment.

As a seasoned software engineer with over 10 years of experience, I have honed my skills across various sectors including insurance, banking, transportation, and the public sector. My focus lies in backend, full-stack, and DevOps roles, where I emphasize architecture, technical coordination, and cloud-based delivery. I believe in a holistic approach to engineering, viewing code as part of a broader, effective solution.

Currently, I serve as a Senior Software Engineer at ERNI Schweiz AG, where I am jointly responsible for defining the future architecture of critical infrastructure management systems. My contributions include driving organizational maturity through the introduction of documentation and workshops, as well as delivering full-stack features across cloud-based microservices. I am passionate about mentoring and actively contribute to team growth through workshops and hiring, always ready to take on more architectural and leadership responsibilities.
