Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolFabian Althaus is a versatile software engineer and designer based in Berlin with 12 years of experience building front-end and back-end systems, tooling for manufacturing workflows, and polished user interfaces. He combines hands-on engineering roles at companies like Rex Automatisierungstechnik and Enginsight with long-standing freelance design and development work, notably contributing to Fritzing’s Gerber generation and SVG-to-Gerber conversion for PCB production. Equally comfortable prototyping interactions and hardening production code, he has a background in interface design (BA, Fachhochschule Potsdam) that informs pragmatic, user-centered engineering. Active in both consultancy and system administration roles, he blends client-facing problem solving with infrastructure and product delivery. A detail-oriented maker, he often works at the intersection of design and manufacturing software—an unusual mix that helps bridge design intent and reliable, production-ready outputs.
