Keep it simple and look outside the box


Hi, I am Martin, working currently as head of IT at Best in Parking & Real Estate AG. I like this job because this position gives me the opportunity to incorporate my many years of experience as a full-stack developer, administrator, entrepreneur into the company. I like to turn complicated and manual processes into simple automized processes. My nickname could be "The Cleaner".

Most of my experience I collected after I founded my own company in 2007. As a consultant and full-stack developer, I integrated and extended a lot of different ERP Systems (mostly Odoo) for companies.

I learned how you successfully finish a long-time project, and I also learned how not. It was a hard and expensive school, but I was never bored.

The most important lesson I learned was that you always need a team. A company has to be always independent of you. With team members and the right documentation and information environment, you can reach this goal. Documentation is the most important task. 

In 2018 I got employed again. From sunhill-technologies I got a fantastic offer as a full-stack ERP Odoo developer/team lead. I was able to work with a big international team for a subsidiary of VW, better known as Paybyphone. It was a very intensive and wonderful time. My company was still active but I reduced my tasks to a minimum, the OrderJim and Funkring projects were operated by my company employees.

After nearly 3 years at sunhill-technologies, I got the offer to work as head of IT. My job at sunhill-technologies was done because for my team members it was no problem to maintain the ERP System without me. As I said before documentation and information management are the keys. And so I came to my current position.
