Germany
Currently looking for the next challenge. I worked for 4yrs as IT Consultant, leading projects on code migration and ai legal tech, gathering substantial knowledge about RAG, finetuning and evaluation strategies. I am constantly trying to move down the stack, e.g. by starting initatives to train models for document extraction and solving the OCR problem, in order to get my hands on the inner workings of models. Currently I am exploring robotics and the application of VLAs. I also worked on backend and infrastructure heavy systems using AWS and the Spring Boot ecosystem. Recently had a brief intermezzo as technical co-founder of an AI HR/Sales Startup, but decided that the domain was not ideal for me. I love fitness and kaggle (competitions expert).
Explored different solutions in the space for HR and Sales. Lots of rapid prototyping. In the end, the domain was no fit for me
