Python Expert in Berlin

Evidence-led health intelligence platform turning published research into personal health protocols. It scores 430 habits, foods, and supplements against the studies behind them, and moves the score when the evidence moves. Built solo.

• Built the daily ingestion pipeline across PubMed, bioRxiv, and medRxiv: 43,000+ papers from 3,400+ journals processed into 230,000+ typed evidence claims, each one traceable back to the study it came from.
• Designed the six-factor evidence scoring model and the public changelog behind it, so no recommendation ever appears without the papers underneath it. 23,000+ grade changes recorded and explained to date.
• Shipped an entity information model connecting every intervention to its mechanisms, biomarkers, and outcomes: 118 biomarkers with region-specific reference ranges, 77 mechanisms, 32 graded outcomes.
• Built the personalisation layer: blood panel ingestion that reads lab PDFs with a vision model and corrects results for draw time against the user's wake anchor, plus Oura, WHOOP, and Withings integration for daily readiness context.
• Operate eleven specialised review agents over the corpus and codebase, covering paper curation, retrieval quality, health-claim compliance across EU and US regimes, and security.
• Shipped the Evidence Assistant, a RAG assistant that answers from the claim database and cites the underlying papers, plus a B2B practitioner tier, an Expo React Native app, and localisation across 3 languages and 7 markets.

Stack: Next.js 16, TypeScript, Supabase, pgvector, Anthropic Claude, Vercel, DeepInfra.

Designed and built an end-to-end interactive decision-support application using public European data across 27 EU countries and multiple strategic dimensions. Developed a structured analytical methodology for comparing countries, identifying patterns and trade-offs, and exploring strategic choices rather than presenting static dashboards. Translated complex multidimensional data into guided interactive exploration and learning workflows for non-specialist users. Built the application end-to-end using Python and Streamlit, with AI-assisted development and Git-based version control. Developed the project independently from problem framing and data analysis through methodology, UX logic, implementation and deployment.

Tools: Python, Streamlit, Git, AI-assisted development

Workflow-automation SaaS for operations teams (Berlin, 120 people); full-time freelance engagement reporting to the CEO: an initial 12-month interim mandate, extended twice through the AI build-out; owned product for one squad and coached the other product managers on process.

• Led generative AI (LLM) integration into the core product: from LLM-powered steps to natural-language workflow authoring and step-level automation suggestions, plus AI-managed dynamic workflows, shipped behind eval gates with human-in-the-loop fallbacks: AI-drafted workflows grew to 31% of all new workflows, and median time-to-first-workflow fell from 3 days to 4 hours.
• Packaged the AI capabilities as a usage-based add-on priced on executed automation steps, working with sales and marketing on positioning: ~€800K added ARR in the first year, and adopting accounts churned 1.8 pp less.
• Owned the roadmap end to end: replaced feature-request-driven quarterly planning with an outcome-based rolling roadmap built on quarterly bets and explicit kill criteria, presented monthly to the executive team and quarterly to the board.
• Rebuilt the product-management operating system: weekly customer-discovery cadence incl. workshop facilitation, RFC/decision-doc reviews and a single quarterly metrics narrative; coached four product managers, one promoted to senior during the engagement.
• Closed the engagement as scoped: hired and onboarded the permanent VP Product, handed over the process playbook and roadmap, and exited on schedule in June 2026.

• Joined the initial development team and helped transform an n8n prototype into a production-ready 0-to-1 product in a fast-paced environment.
• Owned delivery across CRM and Twilio integrations, customer communication workflows, and administrative interfaces.
• Collaborated on AI evaluation, microservice architecture, and other cross-functional product and engineering topics.
• Supported the CEO across VC communications, customer acquisition, product positioning, onboarding, documentation, pricing, and sales.

• Implementation: Migrated all functionality and VBA macros into a standalone web app with central data storage, multi-user support and automated reporting.

• Cash-flow modelling

• Starting point: The existing cash-flow model covered standing investments only; project developments were missing from steering.

• Implementation: Built and extended the CF model to include project-development cash flows.

• Optimisation: Reviewed and optimised existing CF models and expanded the KPI outputs for reporting and steering.

• Led the end-to-end delivery of enterprise full-stack web applications by driving requirement analysis, solution design, frontend and backend development, database design, API integration, code reviews, team coordination, Agile execution, CI/CD deployments, production support, performance optimization, security implementation, and stakeholder collaboration to deliver scalable, high-quality software solutions.
