Hello! I'm Ricardo, a Full-stack Engineer with 12y+ of professional experience, and a strong emphasis on backend development. Additionally, I hold an MBA and have prior experience in startups, administration and financial analysis.

For over a decade, I worked at the same company, designing, developing, and deploying a suite of enterprise applications serving 750+ active daily users. These systems have operated seamlessly and unattended for the past year and a half, showcasing my commitment to building robust and reliable software.

Most recently, I contributed to a YC S24 startup, leading the development of several MVP features such as external service integrations, TOTP-based MFA, and user-facing workflows.

I'm passionate about solving complex problems and creating efficient, scalable solutions. I'm particularly drawn to projects that align with my ethical values, avoiding industries that harm the environment, compromise health, or raise ethical concerns. I aim to contribute positively to the world through my work.

Feel free to reach out!

I am currently finishing a PhD in theoretical computer science and looking for a position in industry. I do a lot of programming, usually in Python and C++, and with a mathematical or algorithmic focus. For example, as part of my research I developed a BDD library that uses complexity theory to guarantee correctness with small overhead. Or recently, in my spare time, I created an AI for MTG (drafting, to be precise), using a transformer architecture with PyTorch. I am very enthusiastic about using or coming up with theoretical ideas that can improve outcomes in practice. I rely on having strong fundamentals, from mathematics over algorithms to knowledge of the actual hardware, to enable me to easily pick up new areas and tackle novel problems. Most of my research is the result of collaborations — it is important to me to both support my colleagues and be able to learn from them.

Please feel free to refer to my CV for more detailed information, or my website (https://nicze.de/philipp/). Currently, I am very interested in AI, but I am also happy to discuss any other interesting opportunities!

Let me build your customer team from scratch.

You’re a founder with a small, engineering-heavy team. You’ve got early revenue, a growing user base, and real traction, but no time to keep talking to users. You’ve outgrown founder-led support, and now you need someone to own everything user-facing.

I’m that person.

At Pythagora (YC W24), I was the first customer hire. I built DevRel, support, docs, demos, community, and launch content from zero. I set up systems to pull user insights from Discord, GitHub, Reddit, and email and turned that into product direction. I ran influencer campaigns, launched features, and shipped full-stack demo apps to tell the product story.

Before that, I spent 7 years at Streak (YC S11), leading technical support, building internal tooling in SQL, Zapier, and BigQuery, and working closely with the founders to guide product.

I'm also a software engineer. I’ve built internal tools, demo apps, and full-stack open-source projects, including a deploy preview framework I documented in a full technical case study.

Looking for a small, sharp team with early traction, ideally post-launch with signs of real user pull, but still pre-scale. A place where I can be the bridge between users and engineers, and help drive growth without the fluff.

    Location: Remote (U.S.-based)
    Remote: Yes (open to frequent SF travel / co-location)
    Willing to relocate: Remote preferred, open to relocation for the right opportunity
    Technologies: JavaScript (React, Node), TypeScript, Python, Ruby, etc.
