octavian.beI’m Octavian, a founder, CTO and software architect. I turn ambitious ideas into working products — connecting business, technology and the people who use it.
FANTASY SPORTS WORK
THROUGH FAN ARENA
01 / LAUNCH COMPLETED
A few places where I bring
business and technology together.
Fantasy sports & fan engagement
I founded Fan Arena to turn a passion for sport into engaging digital experiences. Our fantasy sports platform brings together gamification, live sports data and reliable software for leagues, media companies and brands.
Director of Software Development
Software leadership & public sector
I consult and shape the architecture behind public-sector digital services. My work connects business requirements and engineering decisions solving complex problems pragmatically.
From system integration to dependable, maintainable platforms.
Freelance CTO & Senior IT Architect
Strategy through to implementation
I help founders and organisations make clear technical decisions, build useful products and move existing platforms forward. I stay close to the code, the business case and the people doing the work.
Hands-on experience across web applications, APIs and data infrastructure.
02 / HOW I WORK
Product & business
Product thinking grounded in a business case. What matters to users, what makes commercial sense and what is worth building next.
Architecture & engineering
Architecture that supports the product. From the interface to the API, data flow and infrastructure, every decision should earn its place.
Leadership & delivery
Small, experienced teams. Direct conversations. Clear ownership. I believe the best work happens when the people making decisions also understand the details.
TOOLS CHANGE. CURIOSITY STAYS.
TypeScript / React / Node.js / SQL / Cloud architecture
03 / THE PERSON BEHIND THE WORK
An economist by education and a self-taught programmer, I’ve always been interested in how things work — and how to make them work better.
That curiosity took me from building games to founding Fan Arena, and from writing code to helping organisations solve their problems with technology. I’m most at home where a business challenge meets a technical one.
Away from the screen, you’ll often find me out for a run, playing a board game with my daughter or exploring somewhere new in my campervan. A change of perspective usually brings a better idea.
04 / MAKE CONTACT
A new product, a difficult technical decision, or an idea
that deserves a conversation. Let’s talk.
