About
Hi, I'm Kim 👋
I live in Hamburg, Germany, and currently work for @MOIA as a Chapter Lead and Full Stack Engineer. I'm also part of the team over at Post mit Herz, a volunteering initiative to fight loneliness.
I have a special interest in the future of mobility and the cities we live in. Boardsports of any kind are my passion, as well as a good Sci-Fi Story.
My dream job always was to become what you call today an editor/cutter/VFX artist/cameraperson. All of these things are hobbies now, which I love.

Work Experience
Starting in 2023, I will be responsible for managing multiple employees as their chapter lead. I will report directly to our directors of engineering.
Started in the Fleet Team and maintained sections of a larger web application related to fleet management. These sections contained interfaces for adding, editing, and removing vehicle assets in the software, as well as for monitoring them.
Later, I worked in a team called Fleet Control. Our main task was to enable our customers to monitor vehicle movement and status on a map, as well as provide an alerting system.
Fleet Control then shifted focus to developing autonomous driving connection software. This software includes features such as visualizing vehicle states and providing options to interact with the vehicles remotely (e.g., opening doors, performing cabin safety checks, and initiating video/audio calls to the vehicle).
Technologies used: ReactJS, Typescript, MaterialUI, Apollo, GraphQL, Vite, NX, Cypress, React Testing Library, Emotion
Worked mainly as a full stack engineer in teams with colleagues from the backend and design.
Developed and maintained multiple websites, blogs, proof of concepts, and web motion designs.
Clients included KPMG, Heide Park Soltau, Berlin TXL, Car2Go, Moovel, and New Work SE (Xing) among others.
I introduced Pier2Port Campus, which was the company's internal learning platform. A bi-weekly meeting with topics around web development, technology, networking, and design among others, was created. I also encouraged and taught how to talk in front of an audience.
Technologies used: Typescript, CSS, PHP, React, Angular, Wordpress, Kirby, Laravel, Typo3,
As Technical Lead at WIV-GmbH, I worked with a team of at least two engineers, one designer, and one Site Reliability Engineer. We developed various client websites, web motion ads, and landing pages.
I was responsible for employee growth and project coordination. Visited Clients with our sales team to introduce our tech department and capabilities.
Introduced Kirby to the company as an alternative to Typo3 and WordPress

As pferde.de became its own company I continued working as a full stack developer. After a successful rewrite of the application from Typo3 to Symfony, the product scope grew with new subscription plans for our customers.
The company was bought in 2012 by an Austrian publisher which made me switch back to WIV-GmbH.
Helped to migrate from Typo3 to Symfony
Developed features like search, filters, profile pages, messaging systems, forum boards, and a marketplace.
Technologies used: Symfony, Typo3, Wordpress, PHP, HTML, CSS, Javascript
After four years of apprenticeship at WIV-GmbH I continued my work as a full stack developer with a focus on frontend. I also helped the support team with their daily tasks on a more technical level as well as community & content management.

For Pier2Port I voluntarily developed a tool to have an overview of where our colleagues were. It made it possible to plan, strengthen social interactions, and simply see where your colleagues were.
It provided a simple overview with a five-day-ahead view at first glance, as well as a calendar view per person.
