What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that challenges my skills, offers growth opportunities, and fosters a collaborative environment.

I am an experienced software developer specializing in backend development, database management, and mobile application enhancement. My proficiency in Java, SQL, React, and Android Studio has enabled me to create scalable systems that streamline operations and enhance user experience. I excel in crafting efficient database queries and modernizing frontend architectures, implementing technical solutions that optimize workflows across various applications.

Currently, I work at SSI SCHÄFER, where I engineered modular backend architectures using Java and Spring Boot, adhering to microservices principles. My key achievements include creating a mobile-friendly system for ground crews, improving asset management processes through the WISTAR app, and enhancing route planning capabilities for truck drivers. I am passionate about leveraging technology to solve complex problems and improve operational efficiency.
