I'm a Senior Software Engineer & IT Consultant with over 15 years of experience building enterprise applications, integrating business systems, and developing web solutions. I mainly work with C#, .NET, ASP.NET Core, and SQL Server, focusing on reliable REST APIs, ERP integrations, and e-commerce platforms. Beyond my day-to-day work, I'm passionate about Linux, open source, and Local AI. I enjoy experimenting with locally hosted LLMs, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), and AI agents—with a special interest in privacy, digital independence, and sustainable computing. 🛠️ Tech Stack Area Technologies & Tools Backend C#, .NET, ASP.NET Core, REST APIs Databases Microsoft SQL Server, T-SQL, MySQL Enterprise & ERP TeamSystem ERP, system integrations, business process automation E-commerce nopCommerce, WooCommerce, PrestaShop AI & LLMs Ollama, AnythingLLM, OpenWebUi, local LLMs, RAG, AI agents Systems & Tools Linux, Windows Server, IIS, Git
