Robin Collet
Software developer with a passion for programming, starting with my first HTML project in school, through my own Minecraft mods written in Java, all the way to my apprenticeship as a certified software developer. To this day, I'm happiest teaching myself new technologies. Code is less a job to me than an ongoing playground for experimentation: what began as childlike curiosity while modding has grown into a deliberate, self-directed journey through software development and IT security.
I am currently focusing on red teaming, offensive security, and new web technologies.
A personal portfolio and CMS built with Symfony, replacing an old, stale website that hadn't been touched in years and no longer reflected who I am or what I do. Instead of hardcoding content, I manage the content through a custom admin panel with real-time components. Built so that adding new content is just a few clicks away and not a code change.
PAYBACK Couponeer is a small browser extension for Chromium-based browsers that solves one single, recurring annoyance: having to activate PAYBACK coupons one by one. With a single click, all available, not-yet-activated coupons get activated automatically instead of clicking through them manually. A deliberately small, pragmatic project, born out of everyday frustration and the desire to just automate an annoying task.
CTE was my final project for my apprenticeship as a certified application developer (Fachinformatiker für Anwendungsentwicklung): a platform that helps employees prepare specifically for certification exams. Instead of managing scattered study materials and flashcards, the application brings together exam content, practice questions, and progress tracking in one central place. Created under the conditions of the IHK final exam, the entire application, from requirements analysis to finished solution, had to come together within a tight time frame.
