Summary

A hands-on technical start and over 20 years of experience in IT – from embedded systems and CI/CD to Linux and DevOps platforms. From 2000 to 2014, I also worked in highly technical roles, so I still have strong technical understanding.

Since 2014, my focus has been on leading cross-functional teams and building product-focused (DevOps) organizations. I combine technical depth with leadership strength – and actively bridge the gap between development, operations, and business stakeholders. My technical potential does not always come fully to the surface, but it is essential for the success of complex DevOps transformation projects.
