Stefan Nachname

Human–Computer Interaction specialist with 10+ years of experience across UX, software engineering, frontend development, and interface design.

I build intuitive, accessible, and robust digital products for complex information systems, with a focus on search-driven, metadata-heavy, and research-oriented platforms in scientific, cultural heritage, public-sector, and knowledge-management contexts.

My work combines analytical depth with hands-on delivery. I translate complex requirements, data structures, and domain workflows into clear user interfaces, scalable frontend architectures, reusable components, and production-ready implementations.

I bridge the gap between users, domain experts, design, and engineering. Typical work includes requirements analysis, information architecture, interaction design, prototyping, frontend implementation, usability evaluation, and technical documentation.

My practical experience includes search and discovery interfaces, faceted filtering systems, detail pages, comparison workflows, metadata-driven UI layouts, responsive interfaces, and accessible component systems.

I work with Vue, Nuxt, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, Elasticsearch, Searchkit, REST APIs, Git, Docker, and modern frontend tooling.

I put strong emphasis on accessibility, maintainability, and interface quality: semantic HTML, keyboard interaction, screen reader support, ARIA patterns, WCAG-oriented improvements, clear focus states, readable content structures, and consistent UI behavior across devices.

I also support teams with UX research, usability testing, design-system work, frontend quality assurance, GitHub issues, acceptance criteria, and release notes.
