For more than 20 years, I have been successfully supporting companies in the design, implementation, and operation of data warehouse and big data systems. As an independent IT consultant, I develop tailor-made data solutions, preferably based on open-source technologies. My goal is to create data architectures that are sustainable, high-performing, and adaptable to changing business needs.
Beyond the technical implementation, my focus also includes project organization and team development. I help companies build and lead smaller data engineering teams and contribute my experience in coaching both teams and individuals to ensure that knowledge and skills are effectively anchored within the organization.
Another key aspect of my work is training and knowledge transfer. I offer in-house trainings on Apache Hop as well as workshops on data modeling and data engineering methodologies – practical, hands-on, and tailored to real-world project contexts.
As an active member of the open-source community, I contribute as a committer to open-source projects and serve as a conference organizer. This engagement allows me to stay close to current developments and bring the latest trends directly into my client projects.
