Maximilian Beyer

Joined the Editing Core Team

I helped deliver various projects, while also moving some key migrations along. Coming from a pure Ruby on Rails, the team had started migrating to an SPA, but still had a lot of routes rendered by ruby. I helped push older routes from ruby to SPA and lay the groundwork for separating the frontend from the backend.

I helped develop the frontend application for a new property management platform. My main tasks were implementing features and looking after the code.

I later joined the core frontend team, which looked after core packages for our frontend applications, such as design system components and tooling.

While at SatoshiPay, I worked on a couple of prototypes, one of them being the browser wallet which enables a fast and instant payment mechanism using blockchain technologies.

The other prototype allows businesses to send and receive instant cross border payments, also using the Stellar Blockchain.

Hubrick was a truly special place to work. I learnt a tremendous amount in a very short period of time.

The project itself consisted of a lot of microservices on the backend and a single page React application on the frontend.

At Foodora, I worked on their food delivery platform. The application was a very classic PHP stack. It was a huge, monolithic application built on the Symfony framework. On the client side, it used Backbone.js for interactive components.

Right at the beginning, I took over a big WordPress project and helped it get across the finish line. Later, I was able to work on some fun web application prototypes to support sales pitches on the iPad. They included some fancy SVG animations.

I was part of the "DIY App Development" Team. 1&1 had a website builder and our team was working on apps to add to the website. It was using the big 'ol Zend Framework, which was hard to wrap my head around.

The first real project I got to work on was the redesign of a big watchmaker's website. The agency was pitching the design, and they tasked me with building a working prototype.

I got to work on a couple of advertising banners using flash. While gaining some experience on how to program using Action Script 3, I got to work on a little fun side project.
