Software Engineer | Solution Architect | Web Designer
Hi, I’m a passionate and self-driven developer from Vienna, Austria.
I use code for the creative freedom it allows and the chance to build things that are both useful and enjoyable to use. I like combining logic with a sense of design, aiming for solutions that feel clear, simple, and clean. I’m looking for people who value pragmatic principles as much as I do, to learn from them - because there is still so much to learn.
Over the years, I've worked across multiple domains from backend systems and API development to scripting and automation. Still, I find myself always drawn back to the browser, to HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. And C# - I love C#!
From purchasing the domain and collaborating with a designer, to setting up secure self-hosted infrastructure, implementing a robust database, and optimizing for SEO this blog project covers the entire lifecycle of modern web development.
In this open source project, I am testing and improving the ViewModel logic of a C# Blazor application. Using MSTest and Moq, I create unit tests to ensure that business logic works reliably and is easy to maintain.
This open source project focuses on testing mapping logic in a .NET Core application using MSTest. Its aim is to write unit tests for complex business logic, ensuring code reliability and maintainability.
From intuitive product presentation and secure payment (STRIPE) integration to a scalable backend, GDPR-compliant data handling, and fast, mobile-optimized performance mysurface.shop project delivered a seamless and trustworthy shopping experience that meets all modern customer expectations. (Sadly the shop was taken down by the owner)
Currently in the founding phase, BitQuake Digital is focused on delivering innovative digital solutions and consulting for businesses of all sizes. My mission is to combine technical excellence with creative strategy, offering services from custom software development and cloud infrastructure to agile coaching and digital transformation. (I'm currently in the founding phase, waiting for the registration process to complete.)
Currently in development, the Cafe Fokus website will provide a welcoming digital presence for a local café. The project focuses on an inviting design, clear menu presentation, easy contact options, and mobile-first usability, helping new and regular guests find all important information at a glance.
When I find some free time, I enjoy modding games. This project is a collection of automation and enhancements for Quake 4.
