I don't just write code—I ship real IoT products that solve actual problems. From smart energy monitoring to privacy-focused email solutions, I turn ideas into products people use every day.

const andy = {
  mindset: "Ship fast, iterate faster",
  currentFocus: ["IoT Hardware", "Privacy Tech", "Serverless Architecture"],
  philosophy: "Build products that matter, not just code that works"
};

# Real-time energy monitoring IoT device
• WiFi-enabled IR reader for smart meters
• Plug & Play installation - no electrician needed  
• Tasmota-powered with Home Assistant integration
• Shipping across Germany with 0% VAT for solar users

Tech Stack: IoT Hardware Tasmota Home Assistant MQTT Real-time Analytics

# Privacy-first email solution
• Temporary email addresses for ultimate privacy
• No tracking, no data collection
• Built for the privacy-conscious generation

Tech Stack: React Vite AWS CDK Serverless Lambda DynamoDB

// From idea to market
const productCycle = {
  ideation: "Market research + user pain points",
  mvp: "React + Vite + AWS CDK",
  hardware: "IoT + embedded systems",
  scale: "Serverless + global distribution"
};

# Serverless-first approach
import aws_cdk as cdk
from constructs import Construct

class ProductStack(Stack):
    def __init__(self, scope, id, **kwargs):
        # Build scalable, cost-effective solutions
        super().__init__(scope, id, **kwargs)

"Perfect is the enemy of shipped"

# My product development approach
1. Research actual user problems (not imaginary ones)
2. Build MVP with modern stack (React + Vite + AWS CDK)
3. Ship early, get feedback, iterate fast
4. Scale with serverless architecture
5. Focus on user experience over flashy features

• 🔐 Privacy-focused tools that actually protect user data
• 🏠 Smart home solutions that don't require a PhD to install
• ☁️ Serverless products that scale without breaking the bank
• 📱 Mobile-first experiences built with modern web tech

I'm always interested in:

• Building real products that solve genuine problems
• IoT hardware projects with practical applications
• Privacy-tech initiatives that respect users
• Serverless architectures that actually make sense
