I’m currently on a sabbatical from work. Previously, I was working at Invertbio.com (YC W22). Before that, I was the Head of ML Engineering at Zalando SE. I’m an experienced tech leader in the fields of data, analytics and machine learning / artificial intelligence systems at different company sizes. I’ve worked in deep tech (Verisign, Inc.), e-commerce (Zalando SE and Craftsvilla.com), SaaS (invertbio.com), and consulting (Gramener.com).
I have a strong academic computer science and mathematics background. I am deeply passionate about philosophy, anthropology, game theory, political science, bitcoin, quantum mechanics, world history, psychology, macroeconomics, markets, culture, cinema and art.
