Senior frontend developer in Brisbane, with a bit over 20 years of it. Happy anywhere from the first sketch to the part where it goes live and has to keep working.
Rebuilt Australia's 4WD community from scratch and relaunched it after eight years. Every member account, rig, photo, forum post and reward point came along. Nobody lost a post.

A German LAN-party community that closed in 2011, brought back from a database found intact on an old hard drive. Original members were back and posting within the first week.

Shopify traffic rebuilt as a small 3D shop you can walk around. Watch shoppers live, or wind any day back and follow one visit from the door to the till. No cameras anywhere.
View case studyThe good bit is the moment a client realises their day just got a fair bit easier. That is most of why I do this.
Making something feel obvious is genuinely hard work. I sketch, test with real people and fuss over the details, so your users do not get lost or annoyed.
The awkward bit of logic nobody else wants to touch. Front to back, wired into the systems you already run, and fast enough that nobody watches a spinner.
The old platform still works, mostly. I move it to something modern without losing the users, the data or the Google rankings, one sensible step at a time.
I'm Torsten, originally from Dresden and in Brisbane for 15 years now. I design and I build, so nothing gets lost between the mockup and the code, and a good idea doesn't have to survive a hand-off to make it into the product.
In practice that means one person to talk to, fewer meetings, and an interface that still looks like the design once it's dealing with real data.
