Senior🎓
Top SchoolJonas Ulrich is a frontend-first founder and technical lead with over 20 years of hands-on experience in HTML and 15 years building content management and design system solutions for businesses and creators. As Co-Founder and Geschäftsführer of ruhmesmeile GmbH and kickstartDS, he leads development of a component-first framework that streamlines brand-compliant web frontends and design systems. He originated and scaled agency-side engineering practices into a product-focused offering, solving integration overhead between frontend and backend teams. Jonas blends pragmatic engineering with product thinking, prioritizing developer experience and performance to accelerate cross-functional teams. Based in Bonn, he pairs deep frontend craftsmanship with a history of running small teams and shipping reusable platform code. A detail not obvious from titles: his career arc moved from bespoke client work to a productized framework born from long-term operational pain points.
