Seasoned technology leader with over a decade of experience in engineering operations, software development, and entrepreneurship. As Chief Operating Officer at codefortynine GmbH, an Atlassian Platinum Marketplace Partner specializing in innovative cloud apps for Jira and Confluence, I drive operational excellence from our headquarters in Karlsruhe, Germany, leading a team dedicated to creating SOC2-compliant solutions that boost productivity, eliminate redundant tasks, and serve over 20,000 customers and 2.5 million users across 150+ countries.
Previously, I held progressive roles in tech leadership in start- and scaleups, including CTO, Vice President of Engineering and Head of Technology, focusing on DevOps, agile methodologies, SaaS, and SDLC. I co-founded (and sold) several ventures and lectured as a guest professor at the University of Applied Sciences in Darmstadt. With expertise in team leadership, agile practices, and venture capital, I am passionate about innovative tech solutions.
