Senior Software Engineer & Technical Lead

Building business applications, integrations, and content platforms.

I’m Christopher Goehrs, a Milwaukee-based full-stack engineer. For more than a decade, I’ve built business applications multiple back-end and front-end stacks, led technical delivery, and supported distributed teams.

Positioning

Hands-on engineering with technical leadership.

I spend most of my time writing code, shaping architecture, and helping teams ship on schedule.

Full-Stack Delivery

I build and maintain backend, frontend, CMS, database, and integration systems with a clear focus on business results.

Technical Leadership

I coordinate developers, review implementation details, approve PRs/MRs, and keep distributed projects moving.

Practical Automation

I use CI/CD, documentation, and AI-assisted workflows to move faster, while keeping review and accountability in place.
