Software is
Craftsmanship.
Good software isn't made on an assembly line. It needs experience, care and the ambition to do things right, not just fast.
Hi, I'm Tobi.
I've been a freelance software developer since 2015. No degree, no formal training: just learning by doing and the drive to truly understand things. My focus is on custom web applications that digitize business processes and grow with the company.
Working out of Munich, I collaborate with agencies and directly with companies on a project basis. What drives me: sustainable architecture that's still maintainable years down the line. Code you can rely on. And the conviction that good software is always a dialogue between technology and business.
Over 50 projects later, I know that the best results come from understanding not just the requirement, but the problem behind it.
Self-employed for over 10 years
Starting out on my own
First projects as a freelancer for a web design agency in Freising. Learning by doing. Proof that my own path was the right one.
Munich agency with renowned clients
Collaboration with an established agency in Munich. Nationwide projects, renowned clients and the standard that has stayed with me to this day.
LAY7 cloud
Development of my own managed cloud platform for hosting and operating web applications: from infrastructure to automation.
Agency partner from Krefeld
Additional collaboration with an agency from Krefeld on a long-term client project. Deep involvement instead of superficial support.
Today: 50+ projects later
Collaboration with agencies and realization of my own client projects. Focus on demanding custom software with sustainable architecture.

How I work
Quality over quantity
I deliberately take on only a limited number of projects at a time. That way I can give each the attention it deserves and deliver code that stays maintainable in the long run.
Transparent communication
No black box. Regular updates, honest assessments and clear timelines. If something isn't working, I say so before it becomes a problem.
Long-term thinking
I put every architectural decision to the test: will this still hold up in the future? Software is an investment, and I build it to retain its value.
From Build to Business
Code is only the starting point. Two SaaS platforms that I run end to end, from architecture to live business: built, deployed and in production for years.
Managed cloud hosting that scales with your needs: for websites, online shops, agencies and SaaS. Guaranteed resources, German data centers and a fully automated platform I've been building myself since 2017.
Modern rental software for any industry: online booking portal, inventory management, invoicing and customer communication in one solution. Fully in your own branding and individually customizable.
Let's start a conversation.
Whether a concrete project or just a first idea: I look forward to hearing from you.
