Unleash IT
Michael Svoboda — Senior Software Developer
I architect and build scalable cloud platforms and modern web applications — from robust Java backends to polished Angular frontends. Clean code, solid engineering, real impact.
Engineering that scales — and ships.
I'm Michael Svoboda, a Senior Software Developer based in Vienna, Austria. For 10+ years I've helped teams turn complex requirements into reliable, maintainable software.
My sweet spot is the full vertical slice: designing cloud-native architectures, writing clean Java & Spring Boot services, and crafting fast, accessible Angular frontends. I care about pragmatic solutions, clear communication, and code that the next developer will thank you for.
Whether it's a greenfield platform, a cloud migration, or rescuing a struggling codebase — I bring senior-level ownership from first commit to production.
