Wolfgang Werner is a seasoned platform leader and pragmatic engineer with 15+ years building cloud-native, high-throughput systems from monolith refactors to resilient API platforms. Currently Head of Platform at gridX, he directs delivery for a multi-team platform that handles mission-critical energy-management workloads and customer-facing APIs. Comfortable toggling between hands-on development and strategic architecture, he has repeatedly driven 99.99%+ uptime at scale (peaks cited at hundreds of thousands of RPS) while aligning organizational structure to domain design. His toolset spans modern Java/Spring, JVM backends, HTTP/REST/hypermedia, Docker, DevOps practices and front-end work with Vue/TypeScript. Known as an "enfant terrible" of enterprise IT and a self-described very humble programmer, he pairs blunt curiosity with technical writing and developer advocacy experience. Based in Bavaria, he blends deep operational experience with a habit of turning messy legacy landscapes into maintainable, cloud-native platforms.
