Freelance work for a large German family office

Built and further developed a modular B2B SaaS platform for professional wealth management and family offices, alongside freelance delivery of production-ready AI, data management, and automation solutions for the wealth management sector.

• Developed an AI governance framework for regulated finance and asset management workflows, aligned with DORA, BaFin-related governance expectations, and data protection requirements, including role definitions, access levels, and decision rules.
• Designed an agentic system with a locally operated open-source language model, including Qwen2.5 via Ollama, for secure querying of an asset database through text-to-SQL-to-text workflows.
• Built AI-supported analysis and reporting capabilities that generate structured answers, tables, and charts from asset data, with domain validation through resolver logic and RAG elements.
• Developed production-grade data import workflows for financial service provider data from CSV, PDF, and API sources, including validation, plausibility checks, and reconciliation with existing asset data.
• Solved the asset matching problem without a cross-system primary key through multi-stage validation rules and human-in-the-loop approvals.
