I turn AI into repeatable value creation β as a builder, operator, and trusted advisor. Full-stack engineer turned founder turned AI strategist, I ship production LLM platforms (0β1 in <90 days), enable engineering teams, and bridge the gap between technical possibility and business reality.
- Builder: Founded and sold AI LegalTech to Swiss enterprises (incl. Swisscom) via DocIQ
- Operator: Recently transformed KISIM (Switzerland's leading CIS) with AI-first capabilities at Cistec AG
- Technical Expert: Engaged by top law firms for IP/copyright analysis and expert testimony
- Advisor: Guide VCs, C-suites, and portfolio companies on AI strategy, architecture, and risk via Mickel Tech
My work focuses on creating robust, production-ready AI systems that drive measurable business outcomes:
- Reusable AI Platforms: LLM API gateways, vector search services, RAG pipelines, evaluation frameworks
- Privacy-Preserving AI: On-prem PII masking (97%+ accuracy) for FADP/GDPR compliance in regulated environments
- Agentic Architectures: Multi-agent systems, prompt-to-structured-data compilers, semantic search at scale
- Developer Enablement: AI coding assistant rollouts, prompt engineering playbooks, safety guardrails
- Production LLM Ops: Evaluation pipelines (quality/safety/latency/cost), observability, A/B testing
- Shipped production LLM platform in <3 months driving new ARR in Swiss hospitals
- Built reusable AI components adopted by 6+ internal teams
- Scaled GitHub Copilot/Cursor to 50+ engineers with measurable productivity gains
- Forged strategic partnerships (Google Cloud, research institutions)
- Speaker at openEHR.ch Symposium on "Agentic AI for Structured Clinical Data"
- Exploring Operating Principal and Staff/Principal AI Engineering opportunities
- Building the next generation of agentic AI systems
- Advising select teams where deep technical execution meets strategic impact
- Open-source contributions to the AI engineering community
- π For advisory or consultancy: Book a call
- π¬ Questions/feedback: Reach out on Twitter
- π Open to select opportunities where technical depth meets strategic impact
- The Imperative of Smarter Clinical Information Systems
