Nineteen years of learning what to build, how, and why.

Independent practice

Freiberufler

AI strategist & software architect

• AI strategy for clients under contract — where AI earns its cost, how it rolls out, and how teams learn to use it — plus the architecture and delivery to put it into production.
• Authority Partners kept me on as a client after I resigned in December 2025 — six years there as an employee, continuing on contract since.
• Three-day Claude training programmes for external client teams — agents, context and evaluation, taught on the client's own codebase.
• Products of my own alongside client work: Deutschly on the App Store and Google Play, Omnidoc open source.
• Created the @potato_videos YouTube channel — animated science videos in Turkish, English, Spanish and Bosnian, written, drawn and voiced with Claude Code and ElevenLabs.
• Built SocialMediaPro, the Windows app that runs the channel: an 18-stage production pipeline of Claude Code sessions with five human approval gates, per-character ElevenLabs voices, and scheduled publishing to YouTube, with Instagram and TikTok built in.
• Registered in Frankfurt am Main, invoicing under German VAT.

Authority Partners

Associate Principal · Delivery & Sales Solution Lead

• Led the AI rollout across the company — LLM and GPT-backed tooling in developer workflows and internal systems, and the enablement that got people using it rather than trialling it.
• Three-day Claude training programmes for Authority Partners' clients, and the internal Claude trainings that went with the rollout.
• Built the delivery method behind it: narrow agents, retrieval that earns its cost, and evaluation sets — the same method I use to take my own products from settled requirements to shipped in weeks.
• Architected a cloud-native SaaS healthcare contact centre from scratch for a US healthcare provider on Amazon Connect, Lex and Lambda, with .NET Core services and a React agent desktop.
• Built the authentication and identity front end for the world's largest office-space provider on ForgeRock, and worked on their client UI.
• Delivery and pre-sales solutioning: shaping the technical answer before the contract, then staying to deliver it.
• Mentored six engineers through one internal AP Lab programme cohort in 2021.
• Certificate of Excellence three years running (2021, 2022, 2023) and above-performance ratings every year.
