Uwe Voelker is a pragmatic back-end developer with 17 years of experience building high-throughput, reliable services across Python, Ruby, Elixir and Perl stacks. He has led performance and architecture efforts at scale—from handling core traffic for 10+ million users at XING to building cross-border cost calculators and blockchain data extractors—while driving DB optimizations (Postgres, MySQL, TimescaleDB) and messaging patterns with RabbitMQ. Comfortable in both hands‑on engineering and technical leadership, he splits monoliths, introduced REST APIs and automated duties updates to reduce manual work. Based in Hamburg, he pairs deep systems experience with operational know‑how (bare‑metal and cloud) and is exploring practical uses of AI to accelerate software development.
