02 / About

I like software that makes a messy situation obvious.

Profile

I’m a software developer from Zürich. I started programming at 13 and now work across C#/.NET, TypeScript, Angular, Next.js, data systems and CI/CD.

At Lufthansa Systems FlightNav I contribute to aviation-navigation software and the production systems around it. Outside work, I build practical products like airsoftlaw.ch, created because I ran into the problem myself and the existing information was not good enough.

That pattern is the through-line: understand the real workflow, remove ambiguity, then make the implementation clean enough to evolve.

Capabilities

How I tend to contribute.

01

Product engineering

From problem framing to production code. I like taking ambiguous requirements and turning them into systems that remain understandable after the first release.

02

Data & integrations

APIs, application data, database-backed workflows and the unglamorous integration work that makes software useful inside real organisations.

03

Interface systems

Structured UI, responsive behaviour, component systems and performance-minded front ends — with design decisions encoded instead of recreated screen by screen.
