What I'm looking for

Seeking senior-level remote or hybrid opportunities across Germany and Europe in Enterprise Architecture, AI Engineering, QRA, Cloud Architecture, and Data Engineering.I combine strategic leadership with hands-on engineering, delivering production-grade AI/ML, LLM-powered applications, agentic AI, cloud-native platforms, and scalable data infrastructure.

I currently lead architecture for institutional-grade algorithmic trading platforms, defining their cloud-native structure, data abstractions, service boundaries and production-readiness standards.

In this work, I design market-data layers that turn high-frequency feeds into governed, decision-ready intelligence, and integrate machine-learning pipelines with real-time systems for feature engineering and explainable decision support.

At OneTrust, I architected pipelines connecting 50+ sources to centralized warehouses and implemented a Data Catalog and metadata management system that increased accessibility and literacy by 40%. I also engineered lineage tracking and heat mapping for PII/PHI data to support privacy-by-design and regulatory compliance.

Earlier, at IBS Software, I automated cloud deployments and reduced subscription costs by 70% through VM sizing and configuration optimization. My work has also covered data privacy solutions, AWS migrations, and large-scale Hadoop and Spark platforms; I hold TOGAF 9 certification.
