A creative web architect based in Frankfurt

HEY, I AM MICHAEL.

I am a web technology expert based in Frankfurt with more than 20 years experiences in full stack web development. Throughout my career, I was able to gain a lot of insights in a variety of business models and companies. In the first ten years, my work was primarly focused on B2B solutions, but in the last few years it shifted towards a consumer focus.

In contrast to a typical web programmer who can implement things, I also have capabilities of a project manager. This is the case because I have worked on so many digital projects which gave me insights of how to achieve goals and lead users to the next step. By combining creativity and flexibility, I became a team player and learned how to create successful and not successful digital projects. I am officially certified by Google, AWS (Amazon Web Services), and Scrum.org.

Currently I’m mainly active as a web developer, data scientist and AWS devop.

MY STRENGTHS

Michael Wutzke - Web Developer Frankfurt

I AM GOOD AT...

… creating the right web solution for a given target audience. I am trained to implement concepts by usability experts, graphics designers and product managers or I create such designs myself. By proposing strategic concepts for web projects and attending website optimization trainings, I learned what the drivers, OKRs and KPIs are for making a product successful. By coordinating a larger team of developers, I was able to learn hands-on IT project management early in my career.

TRAININGS AND CERTIFICATIONS

In the last few years I attended a large number of technology, management and communication trainings. Some of these trainings were leading to an official certification. I am constantly self-educating myself whenever I have time to. That’s why I love to travel by train instead of the car: I can use the time there for getting better and learning new things. I especially use video trainings nowadays.

Google Certifications

I am long-term trained to use a variety of Google products and services which play a role in online sales. Among the Google tools I am skilled are Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Google Optimize, Google Ads, and the Google Marketing Platform. I am also Google Analytics Certified and own a Google Mobile Sites Certification.

AWS Certifications

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the largest cloud services provider with more than 50% market share in the cloud services market (according to Gartner reseach). Since 2018 I use AWS services like EC2, S3, VPCs and CloudWatch almost every day. I am an officially accredited AWS Certified Solutions Architect and AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner.

At the moment I am preparing for the AWS Certified Machine Learning Specialty exam.

Scrum Certifications

Scrum is a project management framework within which people can address complex adaptive problems, while productively and creatively delivering products of the highest possible value. I am officially certified by Scrum.org as Professional Scrum Master.

WORK-LIFE BALANCE

When I am not developing or self-educating myself, I am enjoying my free time with my family. As a hobby, I write articles, take pictures, film videos using with my drone. Such material is published on the SKYLINE ATLAS, for which I create content together with other creative people.
