World-renowned boxer Floyd Mayweather was set to hold a boxing showcase atop the helipad of the iconic hotel Burj-al-Arab in Dubai. One of the organisers used this event as a starting point for the pay-per-view streaming platform frontrow.io. A highly senior team was contracted to build and launch this platform. Working directly under the CTO, I was responsible for leading the technical execution: Conceiving the software- and DevOps architecture ⋅ Aligning the implementation roadmap with the business developments ⋅ Defining user stories/tickets ⋅ Defining the testing strategy ⋅ Moderating the kanban-based development process ⋅ Coordinating with an external team for a security and load-testing audit.I was also actively taking part in the development process touching all areas from DevOps over CI/CD and frontend/backend topics.

A japanese utility company operating several solar power plants needed a small analytics tool to asses certain electricity/performance losses. Together with one of their analysts and another data-analyst/consultant our small team developed a software solution to calculate and process these losses and compile them into report documents. In subsequent project steps, we refined these calculations further and recently moved the processing into the clients cloud architecture.

A global producer of solar batteries planned to launch a new kind of electricity contract. Entering at an early stage of the project, I was part of a small team developing a vision for how to restructure the software architecture and the company's development processes. Subsequently, I supported one of the resulting teams in automating the contract conclusion and the communication with other parties on the energy market. My role was to design and implement the software architecture and to maintain the ongoing technical integration with other teams.
