Senior🎓
Top SchoolLaurent Schwitter is a Software Engineer and Tech Lead based in Lugano with 8+ years of hands-on experience building desktop, web, and mobile systems and leading engineering teams. He pairs deep low-level expertise (C/C++, assembler, microcontrollers, PLCs, GPU shading) with modern TypeScript full‑stack practice (MEAN, socket.io) to deliver responsive, real‑time applications. As a founder/CTO and technical lead across startups and agencies, he has driven product-to-production for e-commerce and social platforms while also owning infrastructure and hardware-software integration. He’s comfortable across SQL and NoSQL databases, diverse data encodings, and mathematical domains like algorithm engineering and 2D/3D image/model manipulation. A fast learner with some project management training, he blends pragmatic team leadership and business awareness (accounting, HR, compliance) with curiosity-driven hobby work in neural-network testing. Notable for moving effortlessly between embedded systems and web-scale stacks, he brings both breadth and depth to technically ambitious projects.
