Message

At Tobii Dynavox, I provide technical direction for Boardmaker Editor, a cross-platform assistive-technology app built with .NET MAUI and React. Since I joined, the app grew to 18.7K monthly active users, and I introduced automated end-to-end testing for its embedded webview UI.

I created Vidra, an open-source framework for building cross-platform desktop apps with web UIs on a C#/.NET native layer. Its typed bridge generates matching TypeScript and C# contracts, and I built and published its developer toolchain on npm.

At Barracuda Networks, I led frontend development of Barracuda Site Security Scanner, an Electron cybersecurity app, and helped move it from proof of concept to production. At AMAG Technology, I worked on business-critical production fixes and built proof-of-concept mobile access flows.

Earlier, at Mediatel Data SRL, I migrated a desktop application to a web platform and developed a workforce management module. At Siemens PLM Software, I maintained and enhanced the Motion Core module of Simcenter 3D, connecting solver data to external integrations through a .NET Core Web API.
