Maik

Hi, I'm Maik

Born in 1978, I began developing software in 1994. I started working for subshell GmbH in Hamburg, Germany, in 2003, where I am currently working on our flagship product, Sophora CMS, as well as various other projects. I am still working for subshell to this day.

I have experience with many different technologies and programming languages, including Java, Go, React, C#, and C. As projects come and go, I use frontend/backend frameworks, databases, and other technologies as needed. I am always trying to stay up-to-date with the latest technologies.

In my spare time, I work on a variety of different projects, most of which are open source. You can see some of these projects below.

I am always happy to connect with others:
