About
Hey, I’m Markus! For the past 15 years,
I’ve been crafting backend systems and diving deep into open-source projects—it’s where my developer
heart feels most at home. Recently, I’ve found a new passion for DevOps,
especially when it comes to Kubernetes, AWS, and automating the boring stuff.
I love tackling tricky challenges, learning new tools, and collaborating with like-minded folks to
build efficient and scalable solutions. Whether it’s writing clean code or orchestrating cloud-native
apps, I’m all about creating systems that just work.
