I build
Freelance backend developer with over 15 years of experience. I support startups, agencies, and SMEs in building robust, scalable web applications.
Experienced.Solution-oriented.
I am a freelance software developer based in Leipzig with over 15 years of professional experience in web development. My focus is on PHP with Symfony and Laravel – developing custom web applications that are clean, maintainable, and performant.
What sets me apart is the combination of deep technical expertise with a pragmatic, solution-oriented approach. Whether greenfield project or legacy modernization – I deliver quality that lasts.
Prior to freelancing, I led an IT department with personnel responsibility, developed booking systems for a travel platform, and built news portals with mobile applications. This diverse background enables me to understand both technical and business requirements.
