2025 > Today : Expert Front-end Developer at BIT
After being my own boss for so long, I wanted to see if I could work under someone else and experience the feeling of being a 'new employee.' I also wanted to learn how a company should treat its employees.
I chose to join BIT because they work on technology I believe in and strongly support the open-source community, which I stand for.

2017 > 2020 : CO-CEO at Ultrastark Development AG
I joined Ultrastark Development AG as CO-CEO, focusing on the Front-end while my colleague handled the API part using PHP & MySQL. The enterprise specialized in developing custom websites and hybrid apps.
Lessons Learned
- I've learned a lot about various tools—setting up GitLab/GitHub, experimenting with Bit, Jira, Trello, Mattermost, and more.
Through this process of experimentation, I've become more confident in my skills and have identified the tools I prefer and enjoy using. - Working directly with customers allowed me to take my first steps into project management.
- Working 16 hours a day was common, and I didn't take a day off for over a year. While I now understand this isn't healthy, it taught me to work effectively under pressure and deliver on time, while also emphasizing the importance of self-care.
I'd like to say that I've learned as much in one year as I would typically learn in five years of normal work. - I also managed the entire hiring process and discovered a passion for teaching my knowledge to others.
In three years, we had three apprentices, and I also taught others. I'm always eager to help others on Stack overflow, and I will always cherish my first Gold badge.
Avr. 2019 : 1er finalist at the Arkhaton
That year was honestly tough. We didn't have many customers over the summer break, and we hadn't anticipated that this would change the amount of work we had.
So I decided to participate in a Hackathon. Working for myself, it was hard to gauge my skills. Being the 1st finalist helped reassure me quite a bit.
