About me: https://www.somaticbits.com

I'm a creative technologist working with AI, emerging tech, and interactive systems. I focus on fast, functional prototyping to test ideas through code.

I work with things like generative AI, real-time rendering, and intelligent interfaces. My strength is turning abstract ideas into working prototypes. I like early-stage work where you need to explore, test, and build quickly.

My background is in software engineering, creative coding, and visual design. I've worked with startups, agencies, and artists to help turn experimental ideas into real products.

What I do:

• Build prototypes using LLMs and generative models

• Add AI to creative workflows and tools

• Try out new interaction models and custom interfaces

• Design systems that mix storytelling, code, and play

• Work closely with teams to guide tech direction and try new ideas

I'm open to roles, consulting, or collaborations on projects that use AI to build new kinds of tools or experiences. If you’re working on something bold or experimental, feel free to reach out.

Hybrid designer-engineer (Design Engineer / early-career Product Engineer) with 10+ years in product design (Microsoft, Grammarly, Onefootball), now focused on iOS development with prior web experience. At Grammarly, I was the first design systems hire and helped build the team and foundations. At Onefootball and Microsoft, I developed internal design tools bridging design and engineering workflows.

I’m currently building a portfolio of iOS apps that integrate with backend services and use native APIs like AVFoundation and MetalKit, showcasing full-stack thinking and hands-on technical execution. I bring strong UI craft, system design sensibility, and code together.

I'm looking for a full-time role on a small, product-driven team where delivering value matters more than staying in strict role lanes.

Hi HN,

I am a dedicated Fullstack-Developer with a knack for thoroughness. I’ve built and maintained CRUD applications for various companies and customers over the last 6 years. I can work with and help out with agile procedures. I especially enjoy requirement analysis, database schema design and frontend development. I am looking exclusively for jobs where 20-24 hours is a possibility. If that sounds right for you, send me a mail. I am happy to hear from you!
