Nils Witt

Software Developer

Focused on building modern software solutions for disaster recovery and crisis management. With a background in disaster relief and humanitarian aid as a tactical team leader in communication and infrastructure in a civil protection organization, I bring perspective to software development which combines technical expertise with a deep understanding of the challenges faced in high-pressure situations for effective and efficient solutions. My technical focus lies in developing tools that enhance communication and the reliability of information synchronization in crisis situations, for cloud-based applications that can be used in the field with limited to no connectivity.
