Werner Altewischer is a pragmatic technology leader and hands-on CTO with 15+ years of experience designing scalable Java back-ends and shipping production-grade iOS apps for clients like KLM, Ahold and ING. Trained as an MSc in Physics from TU Delft, he blends a strong theoretical foundation in signal/image processing with practical expertise in realtime systems, video codecs and mobile UI components (notably an open-source WEPopover iOS component). As a founder and early startup engineer he has led architecture and product implementation for streaming and media platforms, and since 2020 he’s steering technical strategy at Beatgrid Media while freelancing through Toptal. He’s comfortable moving between low-level C/C++/codec work, JEE server design and polished iOS UX, making him a rare full-stack engineer who can both invent and industrialize complex multimedia systems.
