Description

Berlin-based Senior Data Platform Engineer with a

Physics MSc (ETH/EPFL track) and 5+ years building

data platforms on GCP. I specialize in the platform &

infrastructure layer—GKE/Kubernetes, Dagster/Airflow

orchestration, Terraform IaC, CI/CD, and secure APIs

(FastAPI/Cloud Run)—so data and product teams can

deliver reliably at TB/day scale with strong governance,

observability, and cost awareness. I enjoy partnering

closely with teams, turning requirements into resilient

systems, and raising engineering standards through

pragmatic collaboration and mentoring.
