Over 20 years of experience in software development—from startups to products with tens of millions of users. Specializes in building engineering organizations that scale without compromising quality or speed. Deep expertise in Domain-Driven Design, distributed systems architecture, and the organizational design of engineering teams.

Key Expertise:

• Engineering Strategy – translating business goals into a technical roadmap and OKRs for the engineering organization
• Building and scaling engineering teams – from the first hire to a department of 50+ engineers
• Organizational-level architecture – Domain-Driven Design, Team Topologies, Conway’s Law
• Technology decision-making – stack selection, build vs. buy, technical debt management
• Operational maturity – DevOps culture, DORA metrics, delivery and quality processes

Management experience:

• Worked with both Fortune 500 companies (Shell, Panasonic) and European startups (Ditto, myTomorrows, CareXS)
• Scaled a B2C product to 60 million users
• Built engineering organizations in HealthTech and MedTech from scratch
• Fractional CTO – helps growing companies build engineering strategy, processes, and organization

Teaching approach:

• Hands-on only: each module concludes with a workshop yielding concrete results
• Methodological depth instead of a superficial overview – participants leave with applicable tools, not just general ideas
• Real-world case studies from my own experience building and scaling engineering organizations
• Intensive format: maximum value in minimum time
