## About

```text
At TurfSport, I designed and implemented a web-based payment solution that brought around a dozen credit-card and electronic-funds-transfer gateways behind one interface. I also designed the service-layer architecture for AWS and later ported it to .NET Core.

Through Uwe Pitsch e.U., I developed backend services and React components for RapidDeploy’s public-safety platform supporting US 911 call centres. I integrated data platforms including Delta Lake, Azure Synapse and Cosmos DB, and supported cloud delivery.

At Velcoda, I developed and maintained a Microsoft Outlook add-in integrated with Microsoft Graph and Exchange Online. Across my work, I’ve built and modernised enterprise software in domains including insurance, healthcare, travel and geospatial systems.
