Business opportunities

I’m genuinely interested in the future of education. I believe we are still at the very beginning of how we teach and learn and that fundamental changes are soon to come. I also see many opportunities in supply-chain and e-commerce.

I’m always happy to talk about business ventures, please get in touch.

Testimonials

Engineers with the talent of Bernhard are rare to come across. Bernhard and I worked together in a software engineering team, developing a product for a startup focused on creative collaboration. His ability to understand the complexities of the project combined with his versatility and large experience in all the aspects of backend development proved to be one of the most important assets for the project.
...
As a team member or a leader, Bernhard earns my highest recommendation.

Dr. Leo Ramirez, Project Lead at Fraunhofer Institute, Berlin

I have worked with Bernhard in many software projects, and he is one of the most talented engineers I know. Overall he is a great generalist problem solver, I had the opportunity to write code with him in projects that go from large Java backends, to frontend web projects in Angular. We teamed up in startup projects using Django, machine learning projects with Scala and Akka, and many more. ...
One of the things that I like the most ... he would always start with the same question: how are we going to test that?
