Work Experience

Jun 2026 – Present Hula Earth · Munich

Senior Embedded AI Engineer

Hula Earth builds self-sufficient bioacoustic sensors that record ecosystems, so AI can recognise species by their calls. Owning the BIoT development, coordinating supplier, product and the team. Getting stuff done, a full jack of all trades.

  • BIoT device ownership: Firmware, power, connectivity and certification of the sensor
  • Supplier coordination: Working with hardware and manufacturing partners
  • Product & team: Aligning product needs with what the device and the team can deliver
Jul 2025 – May 2026 KONUX · Munich

Engineering Manager — Device Team

Led the Device Team building the embedded systems behind KONUX's industrial IoT solutions for the railway sector.

  • Technical Leadership: Defined and delivered the firmware architecture and the technical roadmap for embedded systems
  • Strategic Planning: Turned business objectives into executable technical plans through quarterly OKR planning
  • People Management: Built a collaborative, ownership-driven culture and helped people grow
  • End-to-End Delivery: Architecture, implementation, team processes and budget planning
  • Engineering Excellence: Security, maintainability and good engineering practice
  • Cross-functional Collaboration: Aligned product vision with daily execution together with stakeholders and engineering leads
Sep 2020 – Jul 2025 KONUX · Munich

Senior Firmware Developer

Developed rugged, intelligent sensor systems for predictive maintenance on rail infrastructure, bridging hardware, firmware and connectivity.

  • Bare-metal C++ IIoT sensors: Compact, battery-powered sensors running directly on microcontrollers in the field
  • Zephyr RTOS architecture: Designed and launched multiple sensor generations with scalable, modular firmware
  • Cellular connectivity (LTE-M): Integrated energy-efficient LTE-M modems to get data out of remote locations reliably
  • BLE research: Evaluated BLE as an alternative communication path
  • Edge AI: Prototyped on-device ML models for anomaly detection and predictive maintenance
  • Sensors and buses: Vibration, temperature and pressure sensors via SPI, I²C and UART
  • Standards & certification: CE marking and compliance research for the EU Cyber Resilience Act
