About - I like building things that actually get used.
I'm an Applied AI Engineer at SignalFisher. I build the infrastructure behind resilient AI workflows and implement the workflows themselves.
I started as a software engineer, moved deeper into data, and eventually ended up in AI. Along the way I worked in insurance, banking, consulting, and a few products of my own.
One of those products, TalesTime, reached more than 20,000 monthly users before I sold it in 2023. Athlog is now used by more than 20 Swiss associations and 1,000 athletes.
