About Me

I design and build Side-by-Side Extensions with CAP, RAP, and Fiori on SAP BTP. My primary focus is on Clean Core compliance, event-driven architectures, and distinct "Separation of Concerns".


I believe in Enterprise Pragmatism. Software used in large corporations must be robust, maintainable, and deliver measurable value. I advocate for modern development practices not just because they are trendy, but because they significantly reduce the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and enable sustainable innovation.

Philosophy & Methodology

Docs as Code

Documentation lives with the code. I use arc42-light and ADRs to capture architectural decisions where they happen.

Clean Core

Strict separation of standard and custom code. Extensions run Side-by-Side on BTP or via released APIs on-stack.

Automated Quality Gates

CI/CD pipelines are mandatory. Static code analysis (ESLint, ABAP Test Cockpit) ensures consistent quality.

User Centricity

Fiori Guidelines are there for a reason. Consistent UX reduces training costs and increases adoption.
