Summary
Johannes Kettmann is a pragmatic software leader and founder with 10 years of experience building scalable React frontends and Node.js backends, currently serving as CEO of Office Walker and Senior Software Developer at Contentful. He blends hands-on engineering—having led architecture and checkout systems for high-traffic banking apps—with an entrepreneurial mindset demonstrated by founding Profy.dev, a React training platform driving ~10k monthly organic visits and ~100 students. Comfortable across product, design and ops, he introduced CI/CD with GitHub Actions and has repeatedly delivered cross-team libraries, testing improvements, and white-label solutions. Based in Berlin and trained in physics, he favors clean code and practical architectures that align tightly with user needs and business goals. An interesting detail: he pairs product-building (physical hardware at Office Walker) with dev-centric education, bridging hardware, web platforms and community-driven learning.
