About Me

Hey there! I’m Wilhelm, a Senior Software Engineer with a long history in the IT world.

Before we go any further, I want to share something special - the artwork you see on the right was drawn by my daughter, showing how she sees me. I think it captures something deeper than any title or job description ever could: my age .

Over the years, I’ve worn a lot of different hats: researcher, senior software engineer, IT project manager, lead project manager, and even head of division. Each role has shaped who I am today, giving me a wide range of experience and a deep appreciation for technology.

As a manager, I’ve led teams of up to 30 people, making sure projects stay on track and everyone works together smoothly. When I was head of a division, I had my hands full with everything from managing people to handling sales and account management. It was a lot, but it taught me so much about leadership and the bigger picture in business.

But no matter how far I climbed up the ladder, I found myself missing the core of what got me into this field: writing code and building things. In 2023, I made the tough but exciting decision to return to my roots as a software engineer. It wasn’t the easiest transition, but it was the best decision I could’ve made. Now, I’m back doing what I love: creating innovative applications and solving complex problems.

Outside of work, I used to spend a lot of time on photography and tinkering with personal programming projects. These days, though, my kids have become my biggest passion. Watching them grow and spending time with them is the best part of my life.

I started this blog mostly for myself to get better at writing and improve my English. But if you’re here, feel free to check out my posts. I’d love to hear what you think.

Enjoy!
