Experience depth
20+
Years across product, engineering, platform, cloud, AI, and enterprise delivery leadership.
End-to-end product development
available for selected engagementsProduct management, engineering leadership, compliance, CI/CD, and operations aligned into one delivery system.
I work with enterprise and regulated teams that need one accountable partner across product framing, engineering management, platform decisions, release process, operational readiness, and the actual build. The goal is not just shipping features. It is getting the product, delivery model, and operating system to fit together.
Useful when product, delivery, release, and live operations cannot be split across five different suppliers.
Core domains
06
Product management, engineering management, compliance, CI/CD, operations, and implementation.
Lead surface
01
One accountable partner across shaping, building, releasing, and operational handover.
Operating model
Product depth plus engineering execution, structured like a system instead of a handoff chain.
My background sits across product management, engineering leadership, and hands-on delivery. Recent work spans sovereign AI, enterprise-grade backend systems, release pipelines, cloud deployment, observability, and operating models that need to survive procurement and production.
Before working independently, I held product and leadership roles across Adobe, Aleph Alpha, Build.One, and earlier SaaS environments. The common thread is connecting product decisions, engineering execution, stakeholder alignment, and operational discipline rather than treating them as separate workstreams.
That usually means stepping into work where the product plan, engineering model, compliance posture, and release system all need to be brought into one coherent delivery motion.
Selected background
Recent and relevant experience.
Fractional CTO & CPO
Sovereign AI systems, product framing, RAG prototypes for German legal material, observability, evaluation pipelines, and secure cloud or self-hosted deployment.
Team Lead Product (Vertical)
Government-facing RAG product design, StackIT deployment, engineering collaboration, API strategy, and regulated workflow design.
Group / Principal Product Manager
ML platform infrastructure, model lifecycle tooling, multi-cloud strategy, shift-left security, developer experience, and cost engineering.
Typical scopes
Where end-to-end product work starts paying for itself.
- Product discovery and scope design that must match engineering reality.
- Engineering management and delivery setup for teams that need clearer execution ownership.
- Compliance, privacy, procurement, or audit pressure that needs to be reflected in the product plan.
- CI/CD, cloud, and platform work that turns a roadmap into a releasable system.
- Operations, observability, and handover quality for products that have to keep running after launch.
Typical stack areas include product planning, Python, TypeScript, FastAPI, Kubernetes, Terraform, tracing, evaluation workflows, platform architecture, and operational controls.
Enterprise expectations
What professional buyers usually need to see.
Product clarity
Clear scope, grounded priorities, and product decisions that reflect both user value and implementation cost.
Delivery governance
Engineering management, compliance-aware execution, and release systems that stand up to scrutiny.
Operational ownership
Documentation, observability, run-ready systems, and a handover the internal team can actually inherit.
