Independent web developer · Taastrup, DK

Custom software for the businesses big agencies don't bother with.

What I build
01 / 05

Three things, done properly.

Also: hosting & deployment, maintenance, technical second opinions, and the occasional weird homelab favour.
How we'd work
02 / 05

A short, honest process.

01

A conversation

Free 30 minutes. You describe the problem in your own words — no tech jargon required. I tell you whether I can help, and what it would cost.

02

A small written plan

Scope, timeline and a fixed price. One page, in plain language. You either say go, or you don't — no pressure either way.

03

Build, with you in the loop

Weekly check‑ins and a link you can click any time to see progress. No surprises, no two‑month silences.

04

Launch & hand over

I deploy to your hosting or mine, write the short docs you'll actually read, and stay on call for the first month.

About
03 / 05

Hi, I'm Nicolai.

I'm a developer in Taastrup, near Copenhagen. By day I'm Lead DevOps & Backend Engineer at a software company — I make architectural calls and act as tech lead for a team that ships real things.

By evening I'm a tinkerer. Smart home stuff, homelab experiments, small projects that have no business existing. nicolai.work is where the two meet: ten years of senior engineering, applied to projects small enough that it's still fun.

If you've been quoted a number that made your eyes water by a bigger studio, talk to me first.

One live case to show.

nicolai.work is new — aeromedical.academy is the freelance project I can publicly share. Ten years of senior engineering at my day job sits behind it; happy to walk through what is relevant on a call.
