Daniel Main is a seasoned software engineer and technical lead with 10+ years building front-end and full-stack applications across blockchain, automotive, mobile, and enterprise domains. Based in Stuttgart, he led a 13-person team at IOHK on the Daedalus and Lace wallets, contributing to a well-known open-source cryptocurrency wallet and shipping React/TypeScript/Electron solutions with strong focus on i18n, UX and release engineering. He has a track record of shipping production mobile apps (React Native), enterprise CMS and cloud services, and has held roles from software architect and Scrum Master to tech lead. Comfortable across legacy systems and modern stacks, he pairs hands-on coding and refactoring with design reviews and documentation. Known on GitHub as a "coding plant based" developer, he brings a pragmatic, community-minded approach to open-source projects and a habit of improving validation, accessibility and internationalization.
