Top SchoolFlorian Topf is a Development Expert and software engineer based in Berlin with over 12 years of hands-on experience building modern web and backend systems. He specializes in Node.js and TypeScript backends, favoring functional-standard concepts like Effect and DDD patterns (event-sourcing/CQRS) to deliver resilient, scalable services. Florian has designed and operated cloud-native infrastructures on AWS and Google Cloud, using IaC, Kubernetes, Kafka, and various databases to support federated GraphQL and mobile-focused APIs.
