I build AI employees.

Mechanical engineer. I build AI employees, run my own company on them, and build those systems for other companies.

The Story

From factory floors to AI employees.

At Bosch, I digitized factories. With systems instead of hype. Inputs have to produce predictable outputs. No room for guesswork.

In 2021, I founded my first startup: i-flow. Data orchestration for manufacturing, so factories could actually implement AI use cases. Then came Brixon Group, then AI employees.

Today, AI employees handle tasks that used to eat up hours: content, research, reporting, code, inside the tools teams already use. What I give companies, I run myself first.

Principle
Hand off tasks. Create capacity. Scale without hiring.

On stage

No hype. Not on stage either.

Keynotes and live sessions on AI employees, most recently at the Brixon AI event. The same rules apply on stage as here: context decides the outcome.

Outside work: family, the sea, cooking, normal life.
When the laptop's closed

I don't live in dashboards and prompts.

Father of a little daughter. We live by the sea and walk the seafront a lot. I cook too: good ingredients, sometimes fine-dining inspired. And yes, I do talk about things other than AI.
