$ whoami
5+ years at the junction of software engineering and cloud operations, designing and deploying scalable web applications & infrastructure across global client projects and German tech firms. Shipped production systems at Humatects and DLR, architected commercial full-stack platforms as a freelancer, and earned an M.Sc. in Computer Science in Germany (thesis on LLM fine-tuning for GDPR compliance). I bridge software engineering, DevOps automation, and cloud security.
