Fabian Ullmann.
Software developer. Product partner. Technical lead.
Roughly twenty years of software development. My standard has never changed: I build products and systems so they carry - not so they just look good at first impression.
Often I take on the technical leadership of a project: direction, architecture, and responsibility in the phase where it matters. In implementation I work mainly with Python and Django, PostgreSQL, TypeScript, and modern web frontends. The technology is a means to an end, not an end in itself.
Why clients work differently with me.
Many clients come from constellations where a lot was done, but too little of it looked like real progress. The difference usually shows quickly:
- less downtime
- more direction
- more visible momentum
- products that are not just delivered, but truly taken seriously
Where this comes from.
My path into software development led through a commercial IT apprenticeship at a large industrial corporation, a degree in media informatics, and several roles up to responsibility for high-availability online services with millions of clients. That's where I learned what it means to build software people rely on.
But I also experienced what happens when architecture decisions are made in large committees, when the path from problem to solution crosses three departments - and when processes distribute responsibility until no one is responsible anymore.
At some point, I no longer wanted to explain why something is right. I wanted to simply do it right. That's exactly what I do today with Windschatten IT.
