With nearly 20 years of experience from software development, agile management, leadership and coaching of various teams and departments to marketing incl. graphic design & branding, I offer not only specialist expertise but also entrepreneurial experience. Below you can find out about my most important stations, projects and some skills.
Due COVD-19, I was forced to experience a gigantic summer 2020. I also had to reorient myself. So my engagement at Migros Bank came about almost by chance. The tasks include the areas of "modern SW development" and the way there. Most exciting will be the integration of the Spotify model as an agile working environment.
Support and advice in questions about cloud business and technology. In particular topics around Google Cloud and Openshift. Also consulting and drafting of digital marketing projects especially in the area of cloud migration and employee acquisition. This also includes sponsoring and social media work for big conferences like JAXX & Voxxed.
Foundation of the real estate platform blueored.com. The aim was to provide the user with the help of the openstreetmap.com maps an easy and simple way to find suitable living space or offer. Attention here, in particular, was the mobile version.
As Head, I was responsible for the software development of a biotechnology company specializing in sequencing DNA. Particularly noteworthy was the introduction of the agile organizational structure and the methodologies and processes of SCRUM and Continious Delivery ... also against internal resistance. However, the ROI has been significantly improved by this.
Started in a small startup as a software developer. The company grew enormously and pre-tax sales were almost 1 billion a year. Here I took positions from the management of a development team, to release management and ultimately the responsibility of change management including the QA department. Most of all, we were proud of our innovation in process management in terms of release and service architecture.
As a software developer, I almost started my career here. A mix of client and web applications lied my experience above all to increase customer desires. Towards the end, I had taken over the responsibility for the software architecture and was able to educate myself considerably.
As a student, although I was dispensable and not always with the best tasks supervised, but just the time on the mail sorting machines gave me an insight into the interaction of hardware and software that I do not want to miss today.
That has been my creative side. Actually, I like to be an artist and a philosopher. In fact, the reality was less romantic. But I could here for example participate in the current Lufthansa Terminal Design. That was really cool.
Through various memberships, a network foundation has been created at the B2B level. The brand was also strengthened by sponsoring major IT events and supported by SEM measures. Employee planning for participation/speking times in international events like JAXX & Voxxed also led to better awareness ... until Covid-19 ;(
Creation of productive POCs for companies in Switzerland in the insurance sector regarding Google Cloud localization. Migration of existing SpringBoot services to Openshift using the Gitlab CI / CD functions (runner). Also forced a internal Kubernetes project for a company VPN setup and supervising/coaching the participating project members starting from Docker to the Kubernetes world.
Because of our rapidly growing company, I have developed and created a digital marketing project for the Akquise employees from beginning to end (including graphic designs). The cool thing was, I was able to give free rein to my creative vein. I designed a "let's attract attention" strategy that more than fulfilled its purpose.
To implement the whole project from nothing. Target was to use all cool stuff like docker e.g. the pipelines etc., python, all the mobile constraints ... also the implementation of the openstreetmap tiles and the configuration and orchestration of all the things buzzing arround.
Introduction of Continuous-Lifecycle Environment (including SCRUM) & Controlling of PIRs and KPIs in a regulatory environment against all odds. Also implemented several roles within ITSM.
Architecture conception and planning of the implementation strategy of a completely new micro service solution in the sense of PaaS and SaaS for a new laboratory interface management system.
Organize and complete coverage of Automated regression / product testing within the organization and QA software development with over 100 peoples scatterd in Europe.
Introduction and marketing of the HolidayCheck customer card. Yes that was a really different experience, which helped me not to take the IT view but of the how-i-place-my-product-on-market.
Design and implementation of the unisto.de webpage. Yes ... how can I just forget my first big project. It was an CGI App created with C++. And it was so fast! :)
Error analysis tool / evaluation for display on the client end devices and information distribution to the data cluster of the Siemens Group
I have many years of experience in building and leading agile organizations. From small groups to IT departments in traditional e-commerce as well as biotechnology companies. From coaching and mentoring people and events, I can lead in any context.
Open and transparent communication internally and externally to customers distinguish me. Content and marketing strategy. Experience in SEO and SEM field. Targeted needs and results through free-spirited social media strategies and the courage to try new things.
Front-end & back-end web/client development, graphic & UX design. Skills and experience with most popular tools and languages. (the important programming languages, etc. are constantly changing ... anyway)
From creating cloud service setups to CI/CD techniques to creating and implementing related processes. Here I am very familiar with Github/Lab pipelines, Docker, Kubernetes, Openshift, AWS, etc.
This is the world I live in. Due to my creativity and desire for something new, change is usually always at the forefront of my mind.
I bring to every company not only my valuable skills and competencies, but above all myself as a person. I am a mindful and attentive person who cares about making a difference together.
