About me

I'm a devops engineer, software developer and system administrator living north of Frankfurt, Germany.

At the moment I work with terraform, kubernetes, aws and golang a lot, but I'm open to other technologies and programming languages. I'm a quick learner with a lot of experience, so I'll be able to solve any problem you throw at me.

I'm passionate about…
  • automating things
  • automated tests and high code coverage
  • clean code
  • good commit messages, pull request descriptions and good code review
  • linux (on servers)
I love…
  • working in international teams with people from different cultures
  • learning new things, programming languages, tools, concepts, etc.
  • building resilient infrastructure as code
  • fixing things
  • investigating hard problems
  • digging into unknown source code
  • contributing upstream patches (if required)
