About

My name is Jan Friebe, a Germany-based IT specialist in application development with a background in graphic design for both print and digital media. I have a strong passion for software development, where I focus on striking a balance between functionality and visually appealing, intuitive designs. I’m committed to delivering high-quality user experiences, scalable architectures, and clean, maintainable code in every project I undertake.

I am an ambitious and passionate professional with a constant drive to learn and explore new technologies, particularly in frontend development. I thrive in environments that encourage creativity and innovation, always looking for ways to optimize workflows and enhance user interaction. I am not afraid to ask uncomfortable questions if they contribute to optimization and improving the final product.

I always aim to understand the bigger picture and the intricacies that define perfection in a product. I also love teaching, helping others grow, and sharing my knowledge to empower those around me.
