What he does

He lives the WordPress dream. He started the whole thing as a hobby and is now constantly busy with making WordPress better and better for everyone.

Dominik is a WordPress Core Developer and led the WordPress 4.6 release in 2016. s the Technical Lead of the Polyglots team and Lead Developer of GlotPress he makes sure that millions of users can use WordPress in their native language. Beside that he also contributes to the WordPress.org and Security Team.

In his daily business, he’s developing diverse projects with state-of-the-art technologies with a strong focus on performance and security.

Dominik likes sunsets. Preferably by the sea. But the ones in Cologne are also quite nice.

When he’s not at work, you’re likely to meet him on a bike ride, on a walk along the Rhine with a good coffee – or, more recently, at the gym.

The motto “Sharing is Caring” is a big part of him. Be it sharing know-how at internal workshops, talks at various WordCamps or participation in Contributor Days, such as the first WordCamp Germany. Helping each other simply makes you happy! But sharing food is also often a big topic at our remote team’s retreats.
