Summary
Werner Guttmann is a seasoned software engineer and founder with 16+ years building API-first microservice architectures and leading a Vienna-based software firm, Reactive Software GmbH. He combines pragmatic design-by-contract principles with hands-on expertise in Spring Boot, Reactive Programming, and an increasing Kotlin-centric stack (including Ktor) to deliver robust, production-ready services. Werner’s background spans finance and payments—working on securities clearing, listed derivatives, and EBICS standards—where he represents Austria in the EBICS working group. As CEO and consultant he blends startup agility with enterprise-grade discipline, often focusing on just-the-right-technology choices rather than trends.
