Summary
Philipp Litzenberger is a founder and full-stack software engineer based in Hamburg with 11 years of experience building scalable web and cloud-native applications for sustainably oriented businesses. He blends hands-on development (React, React Native, Django, Node, GraphQL, PostgreSQL) with technical leadership—having led teams, served as interim CTO, and architected cloud platforms that contributed to a multimillion-euro acquisition. Philipp has a track record of improving performance, reducing complexity and release risk (notable frontend bundle and load-time wins at ABOUT YOU) while delivering production-grade services for millions of users. He repeatedly ships end-to-end solutions—from backend data aggregation for IoT devices to mobile apps and platform topologies—often in lean, cross-functional teams. Trained as a Diplom-Ingenieur in vehicle systems, he brings a systems-thinking mindset and engineering discipline to software problems, pairing product sensibility with pragmatic architecture.
