About me
Senior Cloud & Backend Engineer (Java/Go). Fokus auf AWS-Architektur, IaC (CDK, Terraform) & Microservices. Mein Fullstack-Hintergrund (Angular/React) sichert den Weitblick für End-to-End-Lösungen, mein Schwerpunkt liegt jedoch klar auf stabilen Plattformen & Backend-Logic. 100% Remote

I am a Senior Cloud Engineer with a strong background in software development. My focus lies at the intersection of complex backend logic (Java/Go) and scalable cloud infrastructure (AWS). I specialize in breaking down silos between development and operations by treating infrastructure as code and building resilient, developer-friendly platforms.
Cloud Engineering & Infrastructure as Code (AWS) Expertise in architecting and managing cloud-native solutions on AWS. I focus on serverless and containerized environments that are secure, cost-efficient, and highly available.
IaC: Advanced proficiency in AWS CDK (TypeScript) and Terraform for reproducible infrastructure provisioning.
Compute & Orchestration: Extensive experience with AWS Lambda (Serverless), Amazon ECS (Fargate), and Amazon EKS (Kubernetes).
Networking & Security: Configuration of VPCs, Route53, IAM roles, and Cognito for secure application access.
Backend Development & Microservices Architecture Unlike pure administrators, I bring deep software engineering expertise to the table. I design systems that are modular and maintainable.
Frameworks: Implementation of robust microservices using Spring Boot and Quarkus.
Data: Modeling and integration of relational (PostgreSQL, Aurora) and NoSQL databases (DynamoDB, MongoDB, Redis).
Messaging: Implementation of event-driven architectures using SNS, SQS, and EventBridge.
Platform Engineering, DevOps & Observability I automate deployment workflows to ensure fast and reliable delivery cycles.
CI/CD: Designing comprehensive pipelines using GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, and AWS CodePipeline.
Observability: Implementing monitoring and logging strategies with AWS CloudWatch, the Grafana Stack (Loki, Prometheus), and OpenSearch to ensure system transparency.
Containerization: Expert handling of Docker and Podman for consistent development and production environments.
Full Stack Context While my focus is on backend and infrastructure, I possess solid frontend knowledge (Angular, TypeScript, React). This allows me to understand end-to-end requirements, debug across the full stack, and optimize APIs for frontend consumption.
Methodologies & Collaboration
Agile: Experienced in working within Scrum, Kanban, and SAFe environments.
Quality: Strong advocate for TDD (Test Driven Development) and Clean Code principles.
Design: Application of Domain-Driven Design (DDD) to align software structure with business needs.
Technical Stack Overview:
Cloud: AWS (Expert), Azure (Basic)
IaC: AWS CDK, Terraform, CloudFormation, Ansible
Backend: Java, Kotlin, Go, Python, Node.js, Spring Boot, Quarkus
Databases: PostgreSQL, MySQL, DynamoDB, MongoDB, Redis
DevOps: Docker, Kubernetes, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, Maven, Gradle
Monitoring: CloudWatch, Grafana, Prometheus, Datadog, Splunk
Frontend: TypeScript, Angular, React (Context)
Tools: Jira, Confluence, Miro, IntelliJ, VS Code

Project history
- Designed a hybrid AWS platform combining 10+ ECS Fargate microservices (Spring Boot) and Angular/React frontends with a serverless Python ETL pipeline based on Lambda, S3, SQS/SNS and DynamoDB.
- Built a serverless no tification service (Lambda + SNS/SQS) enabling event-driven workflows across microservices.
- Automated all infrastructure using AWS CDK v2 with reusable constructs that significantly reduced provisioning time for different development teams.
- Implemented blue/green & canary deployments via GitHub Actions and CodePipeline for safe, repeatable releases.
- Strengthened observability via CloudWatch and OpenSearch dashboards, alerts and standard runtime checks.
- Developed backend services in Java (Spring Boot) and TypeScript with clean REST APIs for modern SPAs.
Tech Stack: AWS (CDK, ECS, Lambda, EventBridge, SNS, SQS), Python, Go (Tooling), Java
Spring Boot, GitHub Actions, OpenSearch.
