Experience depth
20+
Years across product, engineering, platform, cloud, AI, and enterprise delivery leadership.
End-to-end product development
available for selected engagementsI bridge product, delivery, and operations.
For enterprise and regulated teams where scope, platform, and compliance are pulling in different directions. I turn product decisions, execution, and live operations into one system that can launch cleanly and be owned internally.
Recent responsibility across Adobe, Aleph Alpha, and Senticor.
Core domains
06
Product management, engineering management, compliance, CI/CD, operations, and implementation.
Accountability
01
One partner across shaping, building, releasing, and operational handover.
Engagement view
When product, delivery, and operations drift apart, this is where I step in.
Products go live, but ownership and operations are still unclear.
Scope, platform, and compliance are pulling in different directions.
Teams ship features, but not a system you can rely on.
I take responsibility for the join between product, delivery, and live operations.
Operating model
Product depth plus execution, without the usual handoff chain.
My background sits across product management, engineering leadership, and hands-on delivery. Recent work spans sovereign AI, enterprise backend systems, release pipelines, cloud deployment, and operating models that have to survive procurement and production.
Before working independently, I held product and leadership roles across Adobe, Aleph Alpha, and Build.One. Today I step into work where product decisions, engineering execution, and operational ownership need to be pulled back together.
Services
Three formats for CTO coverage, product operating model work, and platform modernization.
Embedded leadership
Fractional CTO
Technical and product leadership on demand, embedded, onsite, or hybrid.
Details Operating modelProduct Consulting & Training
Empowered teams, better discovery, and delivery that is measured by outcomes, not just feature output.
Details Platform modernizationLegacy Infra to Cloud Native
CI/CD, continuous delivery, and operating models that improve agility and cost control for real.
DetailsSelected 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.
- Sharpen scope before the wrong platform or team decisions become expensive.
- Clarify execution ownership when features ship but the system does not stabilise.
- Pull compliance, privacy, or procurement into the product plan early.
- Set up release, observability, and handover so the internal team can take over.
Typical stack areas: product planning, Python, TypeScript, FastAPI, Kubernetes, Terraform, tracing, evaluation workflows, and platform architecture.
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.

Send scope, bottleneck, and constraints.
Helpful inputs are the product brief, team context, timeframe, and what still needs to work after go-live.
