Berlin, Berlin, Germany
I've been writing code long enough to know that the best solutions rarely come from lone wolves. Yes, I can architect systems, debug the impossible, and occasionally write code that my future self won't curse at. But what I've really learned after 20 years in this field is that great software happens when smart people actually talk to each other (revolutionary, I know). I lead engineering teams by creating environments where people can do their best work without the BS that usually gets in the way. That means clear communication, genuine collaboration, and the radical idea that developers are humans who do better work when they're not miserable. Currently building things that matter at amaiko.ai, where we create the next-generation of agentic AI. Always happy to connect with fellow builders, breakers of things, and anyone who's ever lost a day to a missing semicolon.
Ever watched a brilliant team drowning in their own knowledge? That's exactly why we built amaiko.ai. Mid-sized companies are sitting on goldmines of expertise, but it's trapped in silos - scattered across tools, documents, and institutional memory. As CTO, I'm building AI that actually gets this. Not another search tool, but a genuinely proactive teammate that recognizes your work patterns, automates repetitive workflows before you even ask, and keeps you in the loop on what matters. Think of it as the colleague everyone wants: it learns how your team operates, spots opportunities to save time, and surfaces relevant insights at just the right moment. It'll notice when you're doing something similar to last quarter's project and pull up those lessons learned. It'll automate the mundane stuff while you sleep. And yes, it's enterprise-secure, because trust is everything. The endgame? We're giving teams their cognitive capacity back for what humans do best - creative problem-solving, strategic thinking, and those spontaneous collaborations that actually move the needle. That's what drives me every day at amaiko.ai. Because when AI truly works as your buddy, work itself transforms.
