Johannes Bugiel is an engineering manager and music technologist based in Berlin with nine years of professional software experience and a background in media informatics. He progressed from frontend and full‑stack roles to senior engineering and management positions at Soundtrap and Spotify, blending deep UX/UI sensibilities with audio-focused engineering (including early DSP work). Known for shipping product‑facing systems, he pairs hands‑on coding experience with team leadership across distributed music tech teams. His trajectory—from co‑founding a dev agency to leading engineering at Soundtrap—reflects an ability to translate creative musical ideas into robust, user-centric software. An unusual strength is his combination of formal media/computer science training and practical DSP exposure, enabling him to bridge creative product design and low‑level audio engineering.
