Our team

We bring a wide range of skills to the table. We combine all the necessary skills for the development of custom software - from requirements analysis, concept & design, user research, technical development and testing to marketing and ongoing support.

Overview
Milena Rutz
Milena Rutz
Head of User- and Innovation Research
She uses scientific methods to find the key issues that are all decisive for hit or flop. You’d better listen to her and do exactly what she says: her know-how is worth its weight in gold.
Sonia Sanchez
Sonia Sánchez
Head of HR
Finance & Administration
Her smile isn’t just show – she’s friendly and laughs a lot. But don’t try to play her or there’ll be no salary and no sweeties. Her many years of experience makes our lives soooo much easier.
Res Finger
Res Finger
Concept & Design
With serenity and placidity, he comes up with the wildest ideas. It has to be correct and so easy to use that even the DAU can do it in their sleep. He never misses a beat, ever since that time he fell into the Red Bull barrel.
Naomi Providoli
Naomi Providoli
Marketing & Content Management
Her multilingualism and background in business, media and communication studies allow her to detect even the smallest gap in the content of our clients. She likes content & cats, curiosity doesn't kill her though, but helps her ask the right questions in her studies and with us.
Corsin Flepp
Corsin Flepp
User- & Innovation Research
The family recipe for the best capuns is closely guarded in the depths of Corsin's complex filing system. He has maintained cable cars and laid floors, skis in all directions and plays drums in a band. Such diverse experiences and interests make him an expert at understanding the needs of users of all kinds. And of course it also helps that he seems to know every psychology encyclopaedia by heart.
Stefan Spieler
Stefan Spieler
Concept & Design
Design professional in all aspects. Has a beard now but is still up for every sort of goofing around when it comes to design, games, 3D, table tennis, swimming, horse riding or reading. One of the first with us and still one of the nicest.
Nick Gerber
Nick Gerber
Concept & Design
He knows every shortcut and every Easteregg, there's not a single software tool that he hasn't already tested and sworn at. The clear winner: Notion. He uses it to work in such a structured way that, in addition to conceptualizing, designing and developing websites, he has time to ask the really important questions in life. For example, who tops the own goal statistics in table soccer.
Raphael Neuenschwander
Raphael Neuenschwander
iOS Development & Solution Architecture
The nicest guy on earth with an accent to die for. If we were childless, we would adopt him. Plus, he’s an absolute professional when it comes to bits & bytes.
Roman Hofer
Roman Hofer
Co-Head of Project Management
Always has a smile on his face and is ready to crack a joke, but when it's serious you can rely on him like no other. When he's not out in the fresh air with his phone to his ear, you're sure to find him on a bike trail.
Samantha Howlett
Samantha Howlett
Backend Development
In her free time, she likes to explore the endless worlds of Guild Wars 2 and enjoy metal concerts. The best prerequisites, therefore, for mastering even the most complex coding challenges in a concentrated, quiet and calm manner during the day. Metal, after all 🤘.
Maximilian Lemberg
Maximilian Lemberg
iOS Development
Maxi is an initiator and creates enthusiasm not only on trial days, but also at team outings, hackathons, thirsty fridays, basketball games - in fact at any kind of event. Thanks to his DJ sets, even at office housewarmings no one sits still and the team stays motivated. Or as he would probably say: hyped.
Andrea Zeller
Andrea Zeller
Project Management
For someone who has been managing Swiss rail traffic for 10 years, it's a piece of cake to set up projects and then have them run as if on rails. Maybe it's also because she drinks a tea by the liter or always has a box of chocolates at hand that she can't be rattled too quickly.
Sara Weibel
Sara Weibel
Co-Head of Project Management
She manages to finish everything that looked at one time like it would never end. Her forebears once worked on the pyramids at Giza, the Chinese wall and the Eiffel tower.
Till Könneker
Till Könneker
Creative Direction | Co-Founder
Has a dreaded eagle eye and watches over the quality of our products. Often indulges in his thoughts and forges plans for how Apps with love can reach the next level without losing a life. Loves cats, kids and liquorice.
Andrea Fuhrer
Andrea Fuhrer
Sales
She easily manages the balancing act between her job, kinesiology and private life. Perhaps she knows a secret remedy from her time as a chemist. Or maybe it's simply her acrobatics training that makes her juggle challenges so easily.
Eduard Zielke
Eduard Zielke
Project Management
Our secret agent par excellence: disguised as a project manager during the day, he spies on customers as a bartender at night while shaking martinis, communicates in every language imaginable, and should things get really tricky, he can always fall back on martial arts. His name is Zielke - Eddy Zielke.
Sophia Villiger
Sophia Villiger
Creative Web Development
Web developer with an eye for detail. There is no Javascript framework she can't control and her curiosity for new things keeps us up to date on web trends even before questions arise on Stackoverflow. With 12 years of experience in coffee-drinking, projects with her are completed even faster.
Sarah Deniau
Sarah Deniau
Sales
She has a passion for lifting heavy things into the air and knows how to encourage others to perform their best - Crossfit, that is! If you want to be spared during her training sessions, you can try bribing her with dogs or Swedish cinnamon buns - with that you could be successful. When she's not training or actively supporting our sales team, she works as a freelance photographer.
Oliver Brand
Oliver Brand
Chef de cuisine
He cooks for the entire team but communicates only in Business English for Advanced Students. Known in the Bern rap milieu as -32h von LDeeP. In other words, a real OGC (Original Gangsta Chef).
Kim Jeker
Kim Jeker
Web Development
He dreams of the wildest backend, frontend, API and CMS concepts and when you ask him if they are feasible, his answer is a simple "yes". No wonder with such a treasure chest of experience!
Olivier Oswald
Olivier Oswald
CTO | Co-Founder
His hair is well insured and is testimony to IT experience from the very earliest days of this art. There is no technical challenge that he hasn’t already faced at one time or other. It goes without saying that he has guru status and can generate WLAN through meditation.
Florian Gygax
Florian Gygax
Concept & Design
Our interface expert with a valid sailing permit. If he wasn’t so obsessed with the golden ratio, he’d probably be sailing around the Bermuda Triangle right now. Design projects are in a safe haven here.
Simon Gottstein
Simon Gottstein
Project Management & Lead QA Team
He likes to dive not only into waters of all kinds, but also into the depths of our projects. In addition to being a dive master, he is also an expert in good humor, persuasion and coffee & cake breaks. With his broad experience it's all right for him to laugh - whoever implements projects with him is always entertained.
Michael Heimann
Michael Heimann
Web Development
He basically lives in the middle of nowhere but by no means under a rock. He combines the most diverse interests with ease - for example traditional Swiss music and family-friendly DJ sets, or a soft spot for nerdy tech gadgets and the ability to explain complex things in an understandable and patient way. With his eye for optimization and standardization, he brings structure into our development processes.
Marcin Nowak
Marcin Nowak
DevOps Engineer
DevOps Engineer with Polish roots, an affinity for offensive security and a penchant for Italian cars and muesli. He also is sporty: not only does he cycle on all terrains, he also plays volleyball. The youngster has got to grips with our infra so quickly that he already has earned the nickname "Deploy-Boy".
Valentin Naegeli
Valentin Naegeli
Head of Marketing & Sales
If you want to develop an app with us, Valentin’s the one you’ll get the first info and tips from. He’s more than familiar with the whole app ecosystem and knows if an app is worth it or if investments are going to have to be made first in marketing or a website. We also know him as “The Wolf of Landoltstreet”.
Maya Walther
Maya Walther
Marketing & Sales, UX-Writing
Highly qualified know-how, pragmatism, efficiency, creativity: she has it all. Fresh texts and new ideas lift our marketing team to the next level.
Rémy Böhler
Rémy Böhler
Head of Web Development
If he wanted to, he could program a website with his little toe while blindfolded... but he doesn’t want to. Our secret weapon when it comes to web development.
Sven Schumacher
Sven Schumacher
Web Development
Perhaps it's the Valaisan air that Sven - like our Valaisan #1 in the team Oli Oswald - is tech-savvy and a co-founder of several companies, and has CTO experience. He now works for us as a specialist for everything to do with web technology, including Web3.
Tobias Minder
Tobias Minder
Project Management
He has all the elements of successful project management under control: staying power, the right dose of caffeine, responding to the unexpected and skilful steering. No wonder - as an early riser and coffee connoisseur, he has enough time and energy to perfect his skills while diving, mountainbiking or surfing.
Dinah Bolli
Dinah Bolli
Android Development
She conquers karaoke bars from Winterthur to Budapest and doesn't shy away from gospel stages either. When she's not singing herself or eagerly listening to others sing, she's writing code for Android, powered by brunch and a steady supply of coffee. She is not easily flustered - unless an Apple OS gets in the way.
Michel Utke
Michel Utke
Android Development
If you had to name him after a saying, it would be "the early bird catches the worm". Always the first to arrive at the office, he nonchalantly wears slippers, prefers to hydrate himself with chocolate milk, and if he ever gets tired of developing android (or as he calls it "androidlen"), he has the talent to become the next Paul Laciga.
Liv Rolli
Liv Rolli
HR, Finance & Administration
If she weren't as fast as lightning, you could easily pick up one or two multitasking tricks from her. With her experience in various industries, she always keeps her cool and does so with a smile on her face.
Marc Loup
Marc Loup
Quality Assurance
He used to sweep his opponents off the court in tennis, today he tests our software with the same precision. As Swiss vice-champion in the (aptly named) game «Mindbug», he has a knack for strategic moves, good timing and attentively studying his opponent. Of course he also uses these skills to test the quality of our projects. He skillfully defeats bugs and ensures that our developments move on to the next round without errors.
pcaversaccio
pcaversaccio
Blockchain Consultant
blockchain advisor & white hat
Daniel Geissbühler
Daniel Geissbühler
Backend Development
Could actually do almost everything that we do with his experience in project management, requirements engineering, consulting and sales. But at h'd rather focus on 0 and 1, .Net and system architecture, exchanges with his colleagues and good teamwork.
Aaron Gisi
Aaron Gisi
Concept & Design
With his structured way of working, he has already brought order to many areas - for example, our jungle of process graphics. After a detour into the world of support, he now utilizes his skills in the area of concept and design and, thanks to his critical questions, brings many improvements to our projects. When he is not supporting, designing, creating or tinkering with new technologies, the multi-talent is volunteering for a good cause.
Carra Tillon
Carra Tillon
Web Development
Anyone who learns to love coding after a degree in Mechanical Engineering, knows programming languages from the 1950s, trades Belgian waffles for raclette, likes to tirelessly explain what "Korfball" is and runs marathons, not only has a lot of stamina, but is really bad ass.
Adrian Bader
Adrian Bader
Project Management, RE & Agile Coach
The coolest of dudes, can do everything and can do it all simultaneously. His great-grandfather imported projected management from Japan and schooled him in this old tradition. Of course, he knows the movie “Project-Manager Kid” inside out.
Alain Stulz
Alain Stulz
Technical Lead iOS Development
iOS developers with advanced skills. He has a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Bern in his pocket and the improvement of our office automation always in mind. The ace hidden in our sleeve!
Kajetan Som
Kajetan Som
Web Development
He could easily earn his money with Photoshop artwork, but to our delight he also likes to implement web projects. With degrees in computer science and visual communication, he brings the perfect mix of skills to the table. And thanks to the Google Meet background feature, we still get to enjoy his penchant for graphics, typography and whimsical image compositions.
Ariani Nui Luh
Ariani Ni Luh
Quality Assurance
Her eye for aesthetics is reflected in her love of succulents and the beautifully arranged lunches she always brings. This eye is of course valuable as a tester, allowing her to spot the slightest irregularity. Although she says she's more of a cat person than a dog person, she not only ensures the quality of our projects, but also teaches Bruno, the office dog, the best tricks.
Yannick Pulver
Yannick Pulver
Technical Lead Android Development
Our Android dev with style! He could have been the new face of Dior in Paris but instead he was drawn to the mountains, where he observes the beauty and richness of nature.
Stephan Klaus
Stephan Klaus
CEO | Co-Founder
Maintains the overview when the through-view isn’t possible. Also known as Mr Gadget because he’s on a first name basis with every device imaginable. His expertise is extensive. Ask him anything you want and he’ll know the answer.
Alessandro Pittori
Alessandro Pittori
Web Development
We don't know exactly what Alessandro listens to day in, day out - but his headphones or what he plays on them seem to give him the energy to realise web front-ends of all kinds - as long as he doesn't have to deal too much with PHP, which he doesn't like. He grew up in Basel but now lives in his adopted home of Bern.
Martin Mattli
Martin Mattli
Head of Operations & Quality Management
In theory, he can take apart airplane turbines and put them together again – during the flight. But that got boring after a while and now he’s our man in charge of technical quality assurance. We’re saved!
Matthias Ossola
Matthias Ossola
Android Development
Techie with extended talents: Not only does he have a past as a .Net developer that now benefits him as an Android dev, but he also is fluent in irony and drops sarcastic remarks while keeping a straight face. In addition, he is a speed learner in table football and teaches the established table footballers in the office the meaning of fear.
Jann Fiedler
Jann Fiedler
iOS Development
As a child, his parents read him lines of code as bedtime stories. His interest in computer science and technology is therefore deeply rooted and what Jann can't do, he teaches himself - simple as that. Not only is a secret pianist hiding under his often-worn cap, but also a legendary haircut that bears witness to his Ber(li)n roots.
