That's the theory. Here's what I actually did.
Joined as an iOS developer in September 2024; Days are about investment features in an app where small details compound and trying to help the team move in roughly the same direction.
Joined Appic, a newly founded team with one brief: fix the app. The starting point was a WebView wrapper with a 2.0 rating and a codebase that had grown without a plan. Two years of re-architecting while shipping fast. The rating reached 4.8.
Built tools in C# and Java for engineers configuring ETCS systems for Swiss railway operators — simulation environments, admin apps, hardware programming interfaces.
BSc in Computer Science at ZHAW — systems, low-level programming, the foundations. In the second year, a part-time role at ETH Zürich IT Services managing large-scale storage infrastructure.
Major in AI, minor in economics — the parts of the field that don't come up much in the day job.
Trains a Naive Bayes classifier on your existing folder structure, then suggests where incoming PDFs belong. You approve before anything moves. Built because doing it manually every few weeks was getting old.
A Vapor server that listens for new Strava activities, detects bike commutes, and names rides using GPT-4o mini. Exists because toggling a commute flag twice a day is the kind of small thing that adds up.
An expectimax agent for 2048, built for an AI lab at ZHAW. Reaches the 2048 tile every run. High score: 146,348.
