About

Moin! 🖖 My name is Sebastian, I do Serious Cloud Computing in Hamburg, Germany.

I write about Software Engineering, Serverless, Cloud Computing, AWS, TypeScript, Rust, GraphQL, and React — most articles document established practices or capture explorations and learnings as they happen.

In the past,I've worked as a Senior Consultant, Engineering Manager, Technical Lead, Scrum Master, Product Owner, Creative Technologist, and — of course — a Full Stack Engineer. I have a strong enthusiasm for Domain-Driven Design, Wardley Maps, and Event Sourcing — I love leading project architectures from the whiteboard into production.

Recognised as an AWS Serverless Hero from 2019 to 2026, honored with an Apple WWDC Scholarship and awarded a Red Dot Design Award for Game Design, I've worked on a lot of tech stecks. Over the years, I've held certifications as Scrum Master, Product Owner, AWS Certified Solutions Architect, and AWS Certified DevOps Engineer.

I contributed to well-established Open-Source Software, maintained a project with over 7,000 GitHub stars, published on the official AWS Blog, and built official AWS QuickStarts — alongside plugins for the Serverless Framework.

Beyond the cloud: I dig vinyl records, do portrait photography, and build hardware projects like the 68Keys.io mechanical keyboard. I enjoy playing video games on my Xbox.
