About me


Hey, I'm Max (Joseph Böhler), currently calling Vienna home. By day, I'm a C++ software developer, specializing in the mystical arts of legacy code - you know, that undocumented and magically working kind. As a Linux enthusiast, I orchestrate digital symphonies while my trusty Raspberry Pi armada explores uncharted virtual waters. When I'm not conjuring code, I'm a firefighter and quality time enthusiast with my wonderful wife.
By the way, I also have a knack for crafting websites and web apps from the ground up and I host most of them on my own Raspberry Pi (like this one)! Drop me a message if you have any questions about my tech stack or if you have an exciting project you'd like me to work on.
