I'm Felix.

I work from first principles: challenge what doesn't work, and build what is worth building.

I work from concept to execution: strategy, product decisions, and technical systems.

Create the future you want to live in.

What I do

I explore problem spaces from first principles before committing to solutions.

I work in conceptual problem-solving and turn good concepts into technical systems that ship.

I work across startup and enterprise contexts where clarity and execution both matter.

Culina

AI-native food and meal-planning app — know what you have, what you can cook, and keep a plan that adapts when you deviate or when things are about to go bad.

Tool

Void Zero (OxLint + OxFmt)

Faster linting and formatting — drop-in replacements for ESLint and Prettier.

Why Config-Driven UI Works (and Where It Fails)Thought

Why Config-Driven UI Works (and Where It Fails)

Config-driven UI can massively increase delivery speed, but only when boundaries and ownership are clear.

How I work

Principles

  • Start from the problem space and constraints before committing to solutions.

  • Keep initial scope tight, ship early, and improve with real usage.

  • Stay pragmatic about architecture: choose what fits the current stage, then evolve.

  • Aim for systems that stay understandable under real-world complexity.

Beyond work

I live near the beach, surf when I can, and I'm currently training for my first half marathon.

I believe we're all responsible for building the future we want to live in — so I build things that matter to me and stay open to what's interesting. I'd rather ship something useful and iterate than wait for perfect; I care more about how something feels for the person using it than about the tech for its own sake.

Get in touch

If that resonates, I'd be glad to hear from you.
