Senior Backend Developer at CHECK24, building Go services and an MCP server connecting AI chatbots to internal microservices.

Message

At CHECK24 Vergleichsportal GmbH, I developed a Go Model Context Protocol server that connects corporate AI chatbots with internal microservices for real-time pricing and availability. I also used LLMs to automate tag and booking-question mapping for new providers.

I implemented a nearest pickup point algorithm using user geolocation, increasing the conversion rate by 5%. I also integrated Google Maps landmark search while preserving the integrity of the master database.

At YoDayo, I led the migration from a Node.js monolith to Go microservices using NATS, and designed and implemented a notifications service from the ground up. The product used AI-generated images for streamers and Anime fans.

Earlier, at Astradot, I created an observability tool based on a Jaeger fork and worked on an ingester handling 5k traces per second. My experience also includes blockchain data integrations, high-load marketplace services, and backend development in Go and PHP.
