Marcel Baur

Hi, my name is

Marcel // ingenuity2k

I build Hard- and Software things.

I'm a software developer specializing in creating stuff beyond just code. The space where the digital meets the physical world is where I like to dwell.

About Me

I started my career in tech back in 2013 with a 4-year apprenticeship as a Software Developer (Informatiker EFZ) in Bern, Switzerland. What began as building web applications for clients quickly turned into a deep passion for full-stack development, DevOps and everything in between.

Over the past 10+ years, I've worked across startups and enterprise environments — from product ownership and data science at SPOUD, to building internal tools at NTS Workspace, to CI/CD and client projects for Clients like Swisscom, Mobiliar and Adcubum at Puzzle ITC.

These days I'm focused on building reliable, well-crafted software — and side projects that scratch my own itches. When I'm not coding, you'll find me on my motorcycle or snowboard, reading, or learning a new language.

Here are a few technologies I've been working with recently:

  • React Native
  • TypeScript
  • Next.js
  • CI/CD
  • Node.js
  • ElasticSearch
  • Docker
  • PostgreSQL
  • Supabase
  • MicroPython
