About Angelo Breuer

Angelo Breuer is a freelance senior software engineer specialized in .NET backends, system architecture and cloud infrastructure, with a background in embedded systems and business. He is based in Heinsberg, Germany, and works with teams across Germany, the Netherlands and the EU.

My background is hands-on: understand things, improve them, and build them properly. That shaped the way I work today: clear, pragmatic and technically grounded.

I work mainly across software engineering, architecture, cloud, DevOps and infrastructure, and I still go down to the firmware when a product needs it. I especially enjoy the points where backend, platforms, devices, automation and integrations come together.

Alongside my engineering work I study International Business in the Netherlands. That is why I look at technical decisions not only from an engineering angle, but also in relation to product, operations and business value.

Story

From electronics kit to production systems.

My path into technology was never one straight line. Here is how it unfolded.

  1. It started with electronics

    I did not actually begin with programming. The first spark came from my parents, who gave me electronics kits and books. Building simple switching circuits and small radios showed me that technology was not abstract: it was something I could switch on, test and interact with.

  2. Discovering software

    A friend started experimenting with Visual Basic, and I was instantly curious. I got hooked quickly, because even small tools felt exciting when they did exactly what I had imagined.

  3. Learning by building

    I spent a lot of free time programming for fun. Soon other people became interested in what I built, which pushed me to take on bigger ideas. Together we built projects that grew into real communities.

  4. Hardware meets software

    Then I discovered Arduino, and that changed everything. It was the bridge between electronics and programming: software could finally interact with the physical world. Curiosity turned into robots and complete home automation systems.

  5. Testing ideas, building from scratch

    I started what I call test startups: taking an idea, implementing it fully, presenting it and validating it with real feedback. I built frameworks in several languages and open-sourced parts of my work.

  6. Solving real problems

    I worked as a mobile hardware technician, repairing devices, troubleshooting technical issues and setting up home networks, while building software tools to support the work. Problems got solved with a screwdriver, a soldering iron or code.

  7. Turning it into a career

    An email about a freelance software development opportunity turned into a career. Smaller projects grew into applications, infrastructure and complex systems, and every project reinforced a reputation for careful, solid delivery.

  8. Where I am today

    My path was never one straight line: electronics, then software, now a profession built on practical problem-solving across the whole stack. What drives me is the same as at the beginning: take something from your mind, build it, and make it real.
