Stephan Springer

I’m a highly experienced web developer and Senior PHP Developer with extensive knowledge in Java, Perl, and PHP, and deep expertise in preparing and realizing complex web projects. In my role at neubau kompass AG, I developed and maintained SQL queries, REST APIs, and PHP/Symfony-based applications while improving UI performance and interactivity.

I’m especially proud of driving security and quality: I implemented protection against SQL injection and XSS, reinforced robust authentication (including session management), and integrated Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager for user tracking. I also strengthened engineering practices by setting up CI/CD, expanding unit/feature test coverage from 0 to 20 percent, and leading code reviews.

I’ve also taken on leadership as Acting team leader—supporting architecture reviews, technical roadmaps, mentoring junior developers, and coordinating delivery with planning, milestones, and stakeholder management. Earlier, I built e-commerce features and CMS modules at meventi Deutschland GmbH, and I’ve worked as a freelance software developer and in project and architecture roles, always with a self-motivated, dedicated, communication-first approach.
