Summary
Morten Sørensen is a seasoned freelance Senior Java developer based in Copenhagen with over 20 years of hands-on experience designing and modernizing database-driven REST and web applications, primarily using the Spring ecosystem. He has a long track record of short- and long-term contracts across finance, public sector, and enterprise clients—modernizing legacy JSP/Struts systems, integrating SAP and payment platforms, and building Spring Boot microservices on Docker/Kubernetes. Comfortable across the full stack, he frequently combines Java, XML/XSLT and frontend frameworks (Angular/React) to deliver pragmatic integration solutions and domain data hubs. Unusually for a veteran engineer, he pairs deep technical refactoring experience with product-minded client work, having previously developed and sold his own CMS and advised clients on vendor relationships. Reliable in high-stakes migrations and system rewrites, he emphasizes test automation, code quality and maintainability in every engagement.
