GraphQL Experts in Switzerland

• Led architecture and end-to-end engineering delivery for community-driven SaaS platforms serving 2M+ monthly active users.
• Architected and led the migration of a monolithic Python/FastAPI and PostgreSQL database and LangChain with codebase to an event-driven microservices architecture on AWS EKS, sustaining 10x traffic growth from ~150 RPS to 1,500+ RPS with zero re-architecture cycles.
• Defined and enforced engineering standards across services including API contracts, observability baselines, and deployment topology, reducing production incidents by 55% and MTTR from 2 hours to under 25 minutes within 9 months.
• Redesigned the caching and query layer using multi-tier Redis caching and database indexing/partitioning, cutting p95 API latency from 850ms to 180ms (78% reduction) and database CPU load by 45%.
• Built CI/CD platform on GitHub Actions, Terraform, and Kubernetes (EKS) with blue-green and canary rollouts, increasing deployment frequency from ~2/month to 8-12/day and reducing lead time from 10 days to under 6 hours.
• Implemented contract testing, automated load testing, and observability SLOs using Prometheus, Grafana, and OpenTelemetry, raising platform availability from 99.5% to 99.95% (10x reduction in error budget burn).
• Led and grew a cross-functional team of 8 engineers across backend, frontend, and DevOps, scaling headcount from 4 to 8 with 85% retention; owned hiring, onboarding, performance reviews, and career development.
• Partnered with Product, Design, and Client Success leadership as primary technical decision-maker; translated business goals into technical roadmaps and drove build-vs-buy decisions on authentication, search, and AI tooling.
• Introduced AI-assisted development workflows including automated code review and a RAG-based internal knowledge assistant using Graph (GraphRAG, Neo4J), increasing sprint throughput by 30% across two quarters.
• Owned incident command and production support rotation; established runbooks, postmortem culture, and on-call SLOs, reducing weekend paging incidents by 70%.
• Developed and optimized Algorithms using python libraries like Numpy and Pandas.

• Created the MetX Assistant and was its primary driver from concept through production with real users; designed and oversaw telemetry and presented the system in demos.
• Built React, TypeScript and Python features for MetX, a scientific weather visualization platform; integrated internal data APIs and improved caching, request handling and rendering workflows.
• Contributed to company MCP tooling and led AI workshops and internal automation initiatives, including experiments connecting AI agents with Slack, Jira and Git.
• Acted as the team's Observability and DevOps subject matter expert, supporting service reliability, deployment workflows, monitoring and troubleshooting.
• Participated in Security, Observability and AI Communities of Practice.

• Product strategy, architecture, and technical co-direction
• AI workshops, client onboarding and go-to-market activities
• Design and implementation of AI architectures (LLMs, RAG, MCP, agents, voice, automation)
• Hands-on development of prototypes and production-ready AI integrations
• Consulting clients on AI adoption, workflows, and integration into existing infrastructure
• Collaboration with co-founders on strategic direction
• Collaboration in sales and customer acquisition

Tools and Technologies: OpenAI, Anthropic, Azure, Vercel AI SDK, RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation), MCP (Model Context Protocol), FastAgent, VAPI, n8n, make.com, LibreChat, PostgreSQL, OpenAPI, Next.js, Vercel, Docker

Reduced time-to-market by optimizing CI/CD pipelines. Employees without customer VM access can now deploy. Increased system stability and performance and reduced maintenance effort through systematic database cleanup. Restricted rights for Flyway migrations versus service users. Improved transparency and decision-making basis with enhanced Grafana dashboards for response times, optimized logging, and standardization with Loki. Reduced security risks by consistently applying security best practices such as removing the public schema in PostgreSQL, individual service user permissions, and Docker security context. Facilitated knowledge transfer and sustainable process improvements by creating process diagrams and implementing various concepts. Conducted code reviews across multiple repositories.
