Backend engineer at Uniplex AG who integrated LLM workflows into production platforms and built data-heavy systems for Swiss clients.

At Uniplex AG, I architected and maintained backend infrastructure for programmatic growth and lead-generation platforms, including Compero.ch and PageGrid.com. I optimized PHP/Laravel services and PostgreSQL architectures for continuous traffic and large-scale data processing.

I integrated OpenAI and Anthropic APIs into production workflows to automate manual business processes, and designed agent-based solutions and n8n pipelines connecting SaaS systems.

At Uniplex AG, I also scaled data-heavy applications, developed API and payment integrations, and used Redis for caching and queuing. Earlier, I co-founded Maperia and worked on its geo platform, including backend architecture, database design, caching, and indexing.

Since 2021, I’ve been extending backend systems with AI-powered automation. Most recently, at Team Extension AG, I optimized a large e-commerce platform’s backend performance and database efficiency.
