About Me
Bad Nauheim, Germany
Software Engineer | 17+ Years Leadership
English • German (B2) • Filipino
I'm a Software Engineer with an unconventional path—17+ years of business leadership and project coordination combined with hands-on technical skills.
My journey combines three critical skill sets:
Technical Execution
I build production features at Webeet.io using TypeScript, React, Next.js, and PostgreSQL. I focus on quality assurance, automated testing (Jest, React Testing Library), and shipping reliable code.
Business & Product Thinking
10 years as Founder & General Manager, owning end-to-end delivery, translating business requirements into actionable scopes, and building lasting client relationships.
Project Coordination
7 years managing complex, multi-stakeholder initiatives—including multi-million projects funded by foreign donors and government—with focus on planning, execution, and cross-team alignment.
I bridge engineering, product, and operations—understanding technical constraints, business needs, and coordinating complex delivery.
My 7 years coordinating multi-stakeholder development programs taught me the same skills I now apply to technical projects: requirements gathering, cross-functional coordination, budget tracking, stakeholder reporting, and delivering complex initiatives on time.
What I Bring
Solutions that bridge the gap between code and business outcomes
Technical Execution + Business Context
I don't just write code—I understand WHY we're building it and WHO it serves. Every feature connects to business value.
Cross-Functional Communication
I translate between engineers, product, and stakeholders without losing nuance. Technical details become clear decisions.
End-to-End Ownership
From requirements to deployment, I drive projects through complexity. No handoff gaps, no lost context.
Ideal for teams that need:
