Hello, my name is Andreas Pfohl and I'm a full-stack software developer with 8+ years of experience from Magdeburg in Germany. Though I started coding on quite some projects during my studies I did a lot of passion projects for way longer back starting in high school. Most of my experience comes from working at the bridgefield GmbH (5+ years), where I worked in several fields like the automotive industry, heavy machinery industry, security asset management, and many more. I developed software components from all parts of the stack: server backends, web frontends, native clients, databases, software libraries, just to name the obvious candidates.

I'm currently working at OpenProject as a full-stack software developer.
