CTO at Yoffix · Berlin

Product-minded technology leader and hands-on full-stack architect.

I build SaaS products, scalable cloud systems, and engineering teams that turn complex business problems into reliable software.

Profile

I connect technical direction with product reality.

I am CTO at Yoffix, where we build software for hybrid workplace management and workplace operations. My work spans product development, engineering leadership, system architecture, cloud technologies, and hands-on implementation.

I like technical leadership that stays close to the actual system. The useful decisions usually sit where customer problems, product constraints, delivery pressure, security, reliability, and maintainability meet.

What I Do

Direction, architecture, delivery, and team ownership.

Product and technology direction

Turn business goals, customer needs, technical constraints, and product opportunities into clear engineering priorities.

Architecture and scalable systems

Design SaaS and cloud systems with attention to reliability, security, maintainability, operational cost, and future growth.

Engineering leadership

Create clarity, ownership, useful processes, and a working environment where engineers can deliver meaningful product work.

Hands-on delivery

Stay directly involved in TypeScript, React, Node.js, GraphQL, AWS, integrations, debugging, production systems, and implementation decisions.

Current Work

How I Think

Pragmatic principles for building real products.

Technology should solve a product or operational problem, not exist for its own sake.

Architecture should reduce future constraints without displaying unnecessary complexity.

Small teams need ownership and clarity more than ceremony.

Technical leadership is stronger when it understands implementation details.

Reliability, security, and scalability are product qualities.

Good processes remove uncertainty without slowing the team down.

Technical Landscape

Broad enough for strategy, concrete enough for code.
