Hello, I am Bastian Martin.
I am an expert in Enterprise Financial Workflow Applications, entrepreneur, motorcycle enthusiast and specialist for Harley-Davidson® motorcycles.
During my first years I worked for a software company specialised in financial workflow software, in which I was responsible for the German and the Eastern Europe Market. I did this several years and gained a lot of experience working with Leasing Companies and Banks around the world. In 2014 I started to design and develop the backend and algorithms (including financial calculators for rates and algorithms for evaluating the digital business-mimics of Leasing Companies) for leasinGo, Germany's first "Check24" for B2B Leasing - thus a real-time comparison engine for leasing requests.
In April 2015 I decided to get into my own business as a Financial Software Specialist and still worked for my old company. My focus concentrated mainly on leasinGo and as they started to insource all knowledge because of growth, I decided (in August 2016) that it was the right time to work directly for them as I was sure it was a very promising opportunity. After leasinGo, I worked for a Berlin start-up FinCompare, a broker for financial products, as the CPO. I was responsible for all products of FinCompare. With my team, I redesigned the complete product cosmos, created a strong new brand (Absatzfinanzierung24), scaled internal processes for Handling and Operations, helped to build up a Leasing factory in Duesseldorf, created a complete new leasing engine (live leasing company matching, comparison and rate calculations using strong evaluation and calculation algorithms), helped to onboard several enterprise co-operations and partners and so on. As CPO, I had one of the most central positions in our company and was responsible for making sure, our Product scales and converts best business-wise, so every department gets the best of Product.
In June 2018, I resumed working as a PHP freelancer and consultant for the FinTech / financial market.
ExperienceI have more than 14 years experience in the financial market as a product and software architect with a strong technical background. This enables me to fully understand both sides of the market: the needs of the customer and the vendor.

Skills
InterestsBeside of my strong interest in the financial market, I love music, motorcycles (especially Harley-Davidson®), Whisky and Theoretical Physics. I spend most of my free-time riding my motorcycles and gaining experience in Harley-Davidson®. On top of all lies a very strong curiosity in gaining knowledge of any kind.
