Unsure On System Design
You struggle to design a system on a whiteboard while someone watches you.
Stuck On Algorithms
You haven't done a LeetCode coding challenge since the last time you looked for a job.
Falling Behind On AI
You use AI to write code every day, but you've never had to explain how.
Wrong Stack On Paper
The roles you want are all asking for TypeScript – but your language is different.
Nothing To Show
You have no portfolio — everything good you've built belongs to your employer.
CV Never Gets Read
Your CV doesn’t pass the AI screening and is rejected before a person sees it.
Invisible on LinkedIn
Your LinkedIn is invisible to recruiters.
Interview Anxiety
Interviews make you freeze up and undersell yourself.
Practising Alone
Nobody ever tells you what you're getting wrong.
Can't Position Yourself
You don't know how to position your previous experience as a strength.
Underpaid And Unsure
You suspect you're below market, but you have no way to check and no idea what to ask for.
No Time To Prepare
You're working full time. Without someone holding you accountable, prep gets postponed.

✍️
Corporate Career
Started my career at Cosmopolitan, then moved to Condé Nast Creative Studio (Vogue, GQ, Wired). I was doing well — but the industry wasn't for me. I wanted to build things.
🌍
Berlin Move
Moved to Berlin. It changed everything. Startup capital — creative, technical, full of opportunity. Did a Master's while working part-time as a developer.
📈
Audible (Amazon Company)
Landed a job at Audible in an analytical role — where I saw how great products get built inside a major tech company. Amazing experience.
👩💻
Software Agency, Building Production-ready Software
Got another software developer role, then joined Ambient Innovation — a software consultancy doing real client work. First fully remote position. TypeScript, Python, production-grade projects. Learned so many great things!
⚡
Senior Role at an AI Startup / Freelance
After years in corporate, a Senior Software Engineer contract came in from an AI startup. I said yes, went freelance, and never looked back.
🎓
CS Degree
Studied a Computer Science degree remotely — my third diploma. Algorithms, linear algebra, data structures. Hard, but worth it.
🧝♀️
Coding Elf - Tech Content Creation, 125K Followers
Built Coding Elf Social Media Platform to help others make the same transition — faster and with less confusion than I had. I was told I'd never make it as a programmer. I never listened.
💡
10 Years In
10 years in the software engineering industry. Now building large-scale systems with AI.
🌱
Software Engineer at Enpal – working now
Currently working at Germany's first greentech unicorn as a software engineer, building large-scale systems with AI and contributing to renewable energy.
🤝
Coding Elf Academy – building now
Teaching my mentees everything I know and helping them land the role they're actually after. The best investment I ever made was getting mentors. They accelerated everything — technically and psychologically. Now I'm giving that back!
