Freelance Software Engineer and Data Scientist

I solve and prevent technical problems by writing concepts, designing architectures, and implementing solutions primarily in Rust and Python.

Here is my resume.

My philosophy

I work deterministically on your value chain. Meaning, I don’t experiment in your business. I experiment outside and may come back with a solution to fulfill the requirement in order to start collaborating.

How We Get Started

1. Get in touch via email markus@markusunkel.com.
2. We get to know each other and your project in a 30-minute video call; optionally while walking around the Binnenalster in Hamburg or at your favored location.
3. Depending on the project, you receive a clear proposal with scope, timeline and next steps.
4. We start.

Clients

I work on business-critical systems and intellectual property for my clients. For this reason, detailed project descriptions remain confidential. A selection of clients I worked for:

Zalando

Software Architect & Engineer

Packiro

PDF Preflight Expert, Software Engineer, Data Scientist

Bace

Platform Solution Architect for Founder Team, Software Engineer, Hiring Rust Developers

Sparkplant

MarTech & BI Solution Architect

References

Instead of having static written testimonials I establish the following philosophy:

1. Contact one of the valued persons I worked with in Table 1 below.
2. You will get to know the person and me through a third party.
3. Once we start our project, it’s a WIN-WIN-WIN situation as you have only invested 5-10 minutes of your time:
   • You got direct and unfiltered information about me.
   • You met someone new; they are all very nice.
   • I donate €301 to Women in Tech e.V., you receive proof of donation in the form of an official donation receipt.

Since we do not work in the same office in person, I want to use this approach to encourage direct human interactions and point out that there are far too few women in tech professions.
