Jonas Ohrstrom is a seasoned technology leader based in Zurich with 11 years of experience steering development teams and product engineering. As Head of Development at Palmbeach Interactive and CTO of hazelfire GmbH, he blends hands-on engineering judgment with long-term technical strategy across web and backend systems. He prefers pragmatic, mature stacks—favoring Python/Django expertise over superficial front-end resumes—and focuses on building maintainable, production-ready software. Trained originally in architecture at ETH Zurich, he brings a design-oriented sensibility to system architecture and product ergonomics. Colleagues describe him as a builder who balances delivery speed with structural quality, often translating complex requirements into clear technical roadmaps.
