Senior Software Engineer focused on Rust, scientific software, and robust systems.
I build high-performance, maintainable software for web, data, and research environments — from Rust libraries and backend systems to geodata processing and software used in Antarctic research deployments.
- 15+ years in software and IT
- Rust specialist since early 2020
- Protected German professional title: Ingenieur
- B.Sc. in Maritime Technologies, Wind Energy and Marine Technology
- M.Sc. in Navigation and Environmental Robotics
- Open source author, consultant, and technical lead
- Rust backend systems: Tokio stack, Axum, Leptos, APIs, authentication, reusable crates
- Scientific and data software: real-time processing, geodata, instrumentation, visualization
- Performance-critical applications: efficient architectures, reliability, maintainability
- Legacy modernization: moving existing systems toward safer, faster designs
- Full-stack delivery: web applications, databases, deployment, and operations
A Rust workspace for authentication, authorization, session-backed login flows, and transport adapters.
It provides focused crates for domain primitives, JWT codecs, secrets, sessions, repositories, and Axum or tonic integration.
Small process orchestration for host/child IPC workflows in Rust.
It helps start child processes, establish bootstrap handshakes, exchange raw IPC messages, and shut children down gracefully through a shared control protocol.
Role-based JWT cookie authentication for Axum applications.
Built for teams that need secure, configurable authentication across single-node and distributed deployments.
Highlights: RBAC, secure cookie auth, distributed support, configurable middleware
Modern HTML5 website generation with a focus on valid output, optimization, and flexibility.
Useful when you want technically clean static output without giving up expressive generation logic.
Image optimization for modern web delivery.
Converts assets to WebP and generates HTML5 picture markup for better performance and compatibility.
My background combines software engineering with scientific research experience in oceanographic data processing, autonomous underwater vehicle navigation, and deployments to Antarctic research stations. That mix is especially valuable in environments where correctness, resilience, and real-world constraints matter.
I help teams with:
- Rust backend and library development
- Legacy modernization and performance improvements
- Scientific and geospatial data systems
- Architecture, code review, and technical leadership
- Reliable software for demanding or remote environments
