Profile: https://flows.cv/markusgeyer

As a highly experienced backend lead with comprehensive full-stack expertise, I have had the opportunity to work in various roles throughout my career. These roles have ranged from being the sole engineer at a pre-series A startup to architecting systems that handle 20,000+ transactions per second (TPS). In addition to my technical skills, I have also gained valuable leadership experience. This includes providing direct mentoring to other engineers, running an engineering book club, and effectively managing both remote and local engineering teams.
