Engineer with design roots

First thumbnails for influencers, now engineering for Commerzbank.

Full-stack on Commerzbank's securities product team: React and TypeScript on the frontend, Java and Spring Boot behind it. Six-plus years in banking technology, before that graphic design and editing for the German YouTube scene.

In the evenings, my own projects are on the table.

Six pieces of work from both tracks. The bank projects are described the way they are stated publicly.

Built with AI agents, at work and after hours.

At work: prototypes that automate banking processes with LLM agents, built with Python and Google ADK. After hours, the same approach: this site is built in an agent workflow. One agent implements, a second validates against the spec, a review by a different model checks the diff. Decisions stay human.

Two tracks, both still running.

This site can take it. That is what it is built for.

Accessibility is my day job in regulated environments. Here it can be verified, every checkbox acts on the whole page immediately.
