Michael Carruthers is a Senior Engineering Manager based in Berlin with 11 years of experience building user-focused, accessible, and high-performance web experiences. He has progressed from freelance and agency front-end work to leading engineering teams at Delivery Hero and now Qonto, where he oversees Cards Issuing & Acceptance web teams in the Business Account domain. Known for shipping component-driven front-ends using TypeScript, React and strong performance and SEO practices, he pairs hands-on technical depth with product-minded leadership. He has repeatedly taken technical ownership of end-to-end delivery—guiding architecture, mentoring engineers, and liaising with design and stakeholders to launch global logistics and payments-facing products. A practical problem-solver, he combines agency-style client collaboration with large-scale platform experience, making him comfortable both in fast feedback loops and operations at scale.
