Three months of onboarding for a new hire already costs you a quarter of roadmap.

I embed in small dev teams and start shipping roadmap work by week two. You won't have to walk me through the architecture three times, and after the project, your product keeps running.

Do these problems sound familiar?

  • 01

    The backlog grows but nobody gets to it

    Important features have been in the backlog for weeks. Your team is busy with day-to-day operations, bugfixes, and technical debt. The roadmap shifts, customers are asking – and the competition moves ahead.

    Solution

    I jump straight in and take over clearly scoped feature packages. No lengthy onboarding, no overhead – I deliver production-ready features while your team maintains its focus.

  • 02

    Hiring new developers takes too long and costs too much

    Recruiting, onboarding, ramp-up – until a new team member is truly productive, months go by. And all this with uncertain order volumes or a budget situation that doesn't allow for headcount.

    Solution

    I'm ready to go within days, know the common stacks and processes, and work flexibly according to your needs – without the risk of a permanent hire.

  • 03

    The product is losing customers because critical features are missing

    In the sales conversation, feature X is missing. Support is piling up with requests about function Y. You know exactly what needs to be built – but capacity is lacking. Every month of delay costs you customers and revenue.

    Solution

    I prioritise the features with the greatest business impact together with you and implement them quickly and cleanly – so you can sell them and retain your customers.

  • 04

    External agencies deliver code that doesn't fit your stack

    Freelancers or agencies that deliver quickly often leave technical debt behind. The code runs, but nobody on the team wants to touch it. Refactoring later costs more than the original development.

    Solution

    I work directly in your codebase, adhere to your architecture, coding standards, and best practices – and hand over features your team can continue developing without hesitation.

  • 05

    Internal developers have no time for new features because they're fighting bugs

    The team is permanently in firefighting mode. Production bugs, technical debt, urgent hotfixes – no energy is left for new features. The roadmap is more of a wish list than a plan.

    Solution

    I specifically relieve your team by taking over feature development – while your developers can focus on stability and the core product. A division of labour that works.

  • 06

    Features get built but hardly anyone uses them

    A lot gets developed but too little is validated. Features go live that nobody needs – while the truly important functions wait. Development capacity is wasted.

    Solution

    I don't just think in tickets, but in user needs and business goals. In the discovery conversation I clarify what's really needed – before the first line of code is written.

Can I help with your project?

Yes, if you...

  • Lead a SaaS team that needs to deliver complex features quickly
  • Need features that improve your existing product
  • Work sprint-based and expect regular exchanges and clear deliverables

No, if you...

  • Are looking for a developer who delivers for months without feedback and context
  • Are looking for a full-time employee

How I help

I'm Nils – Senior Fullstack Developer specialising in modern web applications. Over the past years I've guided several SaaS products from the first line of code to launch and know what it means to deliver production-ready work under pressure.

With me you get:

  • Fast onboarding: I'm onboarded and productive within days – not weeks.
  • Clean handover: Every feature is documented, tested, and seamlessly integrated into your codebase.
  • Product thinking included: I question before I build – and deliver what's actually needed.

From initial planning to handover to your team

  1. 01

    Discovery

    Together we look at where your team stands today – which features are waiting, what takes too long, and where bottlenecks occur. We then plan my role within the team and decide together how I can best help.

  2. 02

    Development

    During development I work closely with you and the team. Regular exchange and code reviews are a natural part of my process.

  3. 03

    Launch & Handover

    After launch I stay as long as everything is running stably. I document everything so you don't remain permanently dependent on me. When new requirements arise later, I'm there.

Testimonials

There aren’t many true full-stack developers. Fewer still can take on deeply complex problems and genuinely solve them. Nils is both, and more. He brings technical depth, clarity of thought, and a calm, reliable presence to every project. A highly respected and recommended addition to any team. And when he’s not coding, he’s out training for triathlons; a true embodiment of work hard, code hard, play hard. On all fronts, Nils is a machine.

At objego, I worked with Nils in different teams and phases of the company - from greenfield features to legacy migrations. What always impressed me was how quickly he could slot into new setups and immediately start contributing real value. He brings a strong mix of technical depth, calm communication, and the flexibility to adapt to changing requirements. You always felt in good hands when Nils was involved.

Nils war einer der ersten, die unser Produkt technisch mit aufgebaut hat. Mit seiner strukturierten Arbeitsweise, Flexibilität und klaren Kommunikation hat er maßgeblich dazu beigetragen, dass wir schnell vom Konzept zur funktionierenden Lösung kamen. Besonders wertvoll war seine Fähigkeit, Unklarheiten in Anforderung proaktiv und kreativ zu lösen und ein gutes Auge für UI.
