Tobias Dillmann is a Senior Software Developer with a decade of experience building full-stack and backend systems, currently contributing to the leading open-source project management platform OpenProject. Grounded in Ruby and a test-driven approach, he excels at turning messy requirements into clean, documented, maintainable code and has improved both UI and backend aspects of widely used projects. His background spans IoT backends with Kotlin/Spring, Elixir, and Node.js, plus hands-on work on a modular insurance pricing engine and cross-platform streaming apps. A pragmatic team leader-turned-engineer, he has managed and mentored teams of up to 11 while preferring to stay hands-on with engineering challenges.
