Work with me

I teach what I build. Three ways to work with me, all grounded in production experience, not slides from a textbook.

Workshops & Lectures

Guest lecture, half-day, or full-day · designed for your context

Teaching AI, LLM systems, and cloud engineering to developers, engineering teams, and university students. Every session is grounded in production experience (real systems, real trade-offs, real failures) and prepared specifically for your team, not pulled from a template.

Topic areas:

  • Agentic workflows and text-to-SQL in practice
  • Production deployment patterns for AI systems
  • Cloud-native AI infrastructure (AWS, Kubernetes)

Because each session is built to order, I book 4-6 weeks ahead.

Grounded in the DNA Learning Community I co-founded at Swisscom (Data Analytics and AI department): 40+ events with 50 to 200 participants each, and 1st place at the Swisscom Learning Award 2024.

Mentoring

1:1 or small group · Ongoing

Mentoring for engineers navigating career growth, technical leaders stepping into their first leadership role, and developers building depth in AI, cloud, or platform engineering.

Areas I mentor on:

  • Career growth from IC to Tech Lead or Engineering Manager
  • Building technical credibility (certifications, writing, speaking)
  • Production AI and LLM systems
  • AWS and cloud architecture
  • Kubernetes and platform engineering
  • Navigating large organisations as a technical leader

Mentoring engineers is part of my day job leading a distributed team; this extends it beyond one company.

I take on a small number of mentees at a time. To start, email me 2-3 sentences: where you are, where you want to be, and what's in the way.

Conference & Meetup Talks

Meetups, conferences, corporate learning events, podcasts

I'm starting to speak about what production AI teaches: the systems, the failures, and how teams learn from them. If you organise a meetup or event and this fits your audience, I'd like to hear from you.

Interested in working together?

Whether it's a workshop, a talk, or mentoring, reach out and let's find the right fit.

I'm not taking on consulting or implementation work.
