About

Enterprise Data and AI Architect with nearly two decades of experience designing and delivering end-to-end data transformation programs across Finance, FP&A, and intelligent systems in DACH enterprise contexts. I translate fragmented financial and workforce landscapes into governed, automation-ready intelligence platforms—from SAP controlling architecture and FP&A process transformation to predictive analytics, AI agent deployment, and cloud-native data engineering.

Founder of RadarRoster, an AI & Data Intelligence consultancy producing modular, production-grade products for Finance and Workforce domains. I bridge the CFO’s office and engineering teams without translation loss, operating at architecture level across strategy, design, implementation, and enablement—and communicating AI and data strategy effectively from boardroom to team execution.
