I build innovative systems and lead engineering teams that ship.
01Day job
Platform engineering
I lead Platform Engineering at AutoScout24 & Trader — a global function that builds the paved paths: developer experience, infrastructure, and the systems 800+ engineers across the portfolio ship on every day.
The job is part architecture, part leadership, part diplomacy. When it works, nobody notices — deploys just flow.
- adeveloper experience & paved paths
- binfrastructure & reliability at scale
- cleading leaders, growing teams
02Compiler design
Miri, gpu-first
By night I'm building Miri — a programming language for the AI era. You write ordinary code; Miri compiles it to run across thousands of GPU cores at once instead of a handful of CPU cores in sequence.
Written in Rust, compiled with Cranelift, designed for the hardware we actually have now.
// homage to the mythbusters × nvidia paintball demo, 2008 — one nozzle vs 1,100 barrels. gpu people know.
03Space quest
The sky, indexed
SpaceCatalog.org is the open catalog of everything above — stars, planets, galaxies and black holes: searchable, visualized, and built on an open API.
Sixteen source catalogs merged into one index of the sky. I've been obsessed with astronomy since I was four — craters on the moon, and whether anyone had hidden Kinder Surprise toys inside them. SpaceCatalog is how I reconnected with that. The first of more space projects to come.
