Meet Jens

Welcome to my digital abode, where (some of) my ideas and personal projects reside.

Projects

  • A Chrome extension for power users of Shortcut, a project management tool. Offers AI analysis of task implementation plans, keyboard shortcuts, and integrated cycle/development time stats.

  • An AI Powered code reviewer that helps developers follow best practices.

  • A Python wrapper for the Outlook REST API that enables retrieving and sending emails in a Pythonic manner.

  • An Object-Oriented API Client for Shortcut - offers a more intuitive and developer friendly interface compared to the auto-generated client by Shortcut

Back in 2018, I began my journey as a mid level backend engineer at Wellthy where I’m now an Engineering Manager on a team that has focused on projects from database optimization to implementing design systems. Prior to that, I was in the world of business operations at Interbrand, helping automate their business processes.

I enjoy systems of any kind, from an internal business process, to a codebase, and even macroeconomics.

Aside from programming, I love dancing. I go out often on the weekends, and if you're familiar with Berlin, and Berghain in particular, I went every three months at one point in life.

I also love baking and often bring blueberry muffins, chocolate chip cookies, and apple pie to the office (if you weren't sold on working with me yet!). I'm attempting to get my apple strudel perfected, all tips are welcome!
