About
Started coding at Nintendo 20 years ago. Built a team of 6 people working on 30+ applications at Nintendo.
In parallel worked as a consultant for several startups. Lately helped SkarAudio.com to automate their workflows from Zapier to a professional AWS Lambda setup. It involved 100s of Lambdas, Docker, NextJS, databases and lots of other things related to operations, purchasing, finances, frontend, backend and everything in between.
I enjoy applying my vast experience to various real-world problems and would like to contribute my knowledge to a success of a new company.
