SEEKING WORK | Germany | Fully Remote

I help startups implement secure API architectures through audits, strategy development, or ongoing support. As a solo consultant with 10 years of experience across startups to enterprise, you work directly with me (no junior handoffs). My goal is to enable your team to develop secure APIs independently, not create long-term dependency.

My website has more info: https://www.soeren.codes/

You'll find additional contact info there as well - feel free to reach out!

SEEKING WORK | US/Canada Remote | Toronto Hybrid

I'm experimenting with a new model for CS education using advisors who follow and adapt to students' interests. The core idea is that students should learn how to learn early and to self-direct their own education. However, they need support for when they get stuck.

At the moment, I'm looking to work with students who have deep interests in CS/tech, but want something more dynamic than a fixed curriculum program.

Experience: * Self-taught programmer. * Worked on data engineering at a large hospital. * Ex-VC - worked on technology due-diligence. * Started independent R&D lab (www.ithron.com). * Designed this model based on my experiences hiring engineers.

Engagement model: * Work with students 1 on 1 * ideal age range is 16-21, * 2-3 hours of meetings per week + 15-20 hours of self-directed time * 3 month batches, can be extended to a full-year. * More info at: https://www.divepod.to
