About

As an accomplished Engineering Leader with over a decade of experience in frontend and UI development, I specialize in leading high-performing teams and delivering robust, scalable frontend platforms. Currently, at SoSafe GmbH, I lead a talented team of developers and designers, oversee task planning and execution, and architect the frontend platform to ensure smooth user experiences. I focus on improving engineering metrics, introducing microfrontend architecture, and scaling consumer-facing applications. I am passionate about mentoring and helping my team members grow in their careers, conducting regular 1:1s and performance reviews to support their development. My previous roles at Greator, Treebo Hotels and MetricStream involved spearheading the creation of mobile apps, managing frontend teams, and implementing end-to-end build pipelines, demonstrating my expertise in both technical and leadership capacities.
