I turn complex ideas into successful products.

I am using my creative mind, widespread expertise and experience as an engineer, and market oriented project execution to make the future's technology accessible today.

about

My name is Dominik Maglia, I was born 1995 in Winterthur, Switzerland and currently live here. I hold a bachelor's degree in computer science and am studying towards a master's degree in business administration.
In 2016 I co-founded my first startup where we developed a product line of Internet of Things low power devices and a cloud data platform which we sold in mid 2017.
In 2020 I co-founded my second startup focused on light measurement and optimization with mobile technologies.

I love what I do and I take great pride in my work. I love to create new things and to make technology accessible. I am self driven, efficient, always wanting to learn new things, and wanting to be challenged.

Contact me if you want to know more. I would be pleased to get to know you!
