I turn AI into repeatable value creation — as a builder, operator, and trusted advisor.
Full-stack engineer → founder → AI strategist. I ship production LLM platforms (0→1 fast), enable engineering teams, and bridge the gap between technical possibility and business reality.

Now: Operating Principal (AI/Tech) @ GrowthFactors (BU Bregal Unternehmerkapital's) internal go-to-market and value-creation team) Prev: Head of AI @ CISTEC AG • Founder @ DocIQ

• Builder: Built and sold AI LegalTech into Swiss enterprises (incl. Swisscom) via DocIQ
• Operator: Head of AI @ Cistec AG (through Sep 25) — led KISIM’s AI-first capabilities in a regulated environment
• Technical Expert: Engaged for IP/copyright analysis and expert testimony in legal proceedings, including arbitration and state-court litigation
• Advisor: Guide VCs, C-suites, and portfolio companies on AI strategy, architecture, and risk via Mickel Tech

Creating robust, production-ready AI systems that drive measurable outcomes:

• Reusable AI platforms: LLM API gateways, vector search services, context engineering, evaluation frameworks
• Privacy-preserving AI: On-prem PII masking (~97% accuracy) for FADP/GDPR compliance
• Agentic architectures: Multi-agent systems, prompt-to-structured-data compilers, semantic search at scale
• Developer enablement: AI coding assistant rollouts, prompt/playbook patterns, safety guardrails
• Production LLM Ops: Evaluation pipelines (quality/safety/latency/cost), observability, A/B testing

• Shipped a 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 (cloud providers, research institutions)
• Speaker at openEHR.ch Symposium: Agentic AI for Structured Clinical Data
