About Me

Jan Christoph Uhde

Hello! I’m Jan Christoph Uhde, a passionate Senior Software Engineer currently working at xtonomy, which is part of Hexagon. I specialize in C++ development, networking, and database systems.

Background

I hold a Computer Science degree (Diplom) from RWTH Aachen and have extensive experience in modern C++ development across various industries including mining technology, fintech, and database systems. My expertise includes:

  • C++ Development - Modern C++ techniques, Asio, and high-performance applications
  • Systems Programming - Networking, databases, and Linux system development
  • Backend Development - Go, gRPC, Apache Kafka, and microservices architecture
  • Technical Leadership - Leading development teams and architectural decisions
  • DevOps & Tools - Docker, GitLab, CMake, and modern development workflows

About This Blog

My first intention for this website was to create something like a C++ blog. Due to the fact that other things have a higher priority for me, the blog has evolved into a collection of snippets related to programming and server maintenance. Here I share practical solutions, code snippets, and technical insights from my daily work.
