I build products for founders who need tech.

10+ years shipping production systems. Go, Python, TypeScript. AI-native. Berlin-based, working with teams globally. Previously co-founded an AI productivity SaaS that scaled to thousands of users.

What I do

MVP Build

You have the idea and the budget. I turn it into a working product. Defined scope, fixed price, deployed and ready for users.

4-8 weeksFixed priceFull ownership

AI Integration

Add AI capabilities to your existing product. LLM orchestration, agent pipelines, NLP features, evaluation frameworks. Production-grade, not a wrapper.

2-4 weeksMilestone-basedProduction-ready

Fractional CTO

Technical leadership without the full-time cost. Architecture decisions, team hiring, code review, vendor evaluation. Perfect for pre-Series A.
