“Good systems, like good trails, should make the way forward feel obvious.”
I’m Mitja, a software developer based in Switzerland. I care about thoughtful interfaces, durable code, and reducing complex problems to their clearest form.
Away from the screen, I lead a local scout group. It keeps me practical: plan well, adapt quickly, leave things better than you found them.
