Philipp Dollst

Personal

Born and raised in Hamburg, I found my passion for computers and coding early in life. Today, I build software with the same curiosity and love for craftsmanship.

Professional

Most recently, I led the Web Platform team at LichtBlick SE, Germany’s fifth-largest energy provider. I was responsible for the frontend platform and shared infrastructure powering multiple product teams, with a strong focus on Next.js, React, and TypeScript.

My work centered on scalable frontend foundations: design systems, shared component libraries, CI/CD pipelines, and tooling that enabled fast, reliable delivery across teams. I advocate for lean processes, short feedback loops, and clear technical ownership — because well-designed systems and empowered engineers scale better than process alone.
