Context

From 2017 MOIA built a new mobility service from scratch in Hamburg – a deep-tech startup with high pace, many stakeholders and a fixed launch goal.

My role

I joined in January 2017 as a freelance front-end developer and later took on the roles of senior front-end engineer and team lead for a team of front-end developers.

Approach

  • Lean and product-driven: get features to users early, collect feedback, iterate
  • Pragmatic solutions that support business value and technical architecture alike
  • Close collaboration with product and fleet operations across all levels

Result

The team regularly reached its milestones ahead of their deadlines – and together achieved more than anyone thought possible at the start.

“Kjell is the right guy you will want at your side when you are launching a deep tech startup like we did together at MOIA.” – Ralf Sigmund, CTO, MOIA
