Available for work

My Experience

I’m an infrastructure software engineer who likes making complex systems more reliable and easier to run.

I spent the 5 last years on Cloudflare's Addressing team, the final two as Tech Lead. I helped build the control plane for IPs at Cloudflare and the BYOIP product. Before that, I spent 3 years as a Site Reliability Engineer for the Edge network, serving over 500 million requests per second.

Previously, I managed the bare-metal infrastructure that served 100M+ users at SoundCloud. I built a server provisioning platform and worked across networking, request routing and DNS and CDN infrastructure.

What I'm looking for

A Senior/Staff+ role in a company with their own product where I can own and improve core backend systems, developer experience or system reliability.

I am a non-EU citizen with work authorisation for Germany. I would require visa sponsorship in Switzerland. I can work both on-site (hybrid preferred) and remote, depending on the location.

There are some industries where I would prefer not to work: AI Companionship, Blockchain/Cryptocurrency, Defense, Gambling.
