Expertise

Deep in SAP, fluent across the stack.

My core is architecture and integration on SAP BAIP, backed by a full-stack engineering background and a growing AI practice. This is what I bring to the table.

My story

I'm a Principal Technical Consultant and Solution Architect specializing in SAP Business AI Platform (BAIP), aka SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP), SAP Customer Experience, and end-to-end enterprise integration. My path started at IBM: Second-level support and Java development for WebSphere, then BPM consulting for enterprise clients. Via Pegasystems and SAP Customer Experience development I arrived where I am today, designing solution architectures on SAP BTP at Nagarro.

I design and deliver secure, scalable architectures, including side-by-side extensions for SAP S/4HANA built with CAP, Fiori/UI5, Java, and Node.js. On the integration side, I'm at home in SAP Integration Suite, event-driven patterns, API governance, and identity and security, backed by 25+ years in IT and a full-stack, cloud-native engineering background spanning CRM, BPM, and software development.

What has never changed is how I work: I take end-to-end technical responsibility, owning the full lifecycle from pre-sales and requirements analysis through design, build, test, and go-live, translating business needs into architectures and guiding teams and stakeholders with clear communication and a focus on quality.

The newest chapter is Artificial Intelligence (AI). I evaluate use cases and build proofs of concept with LLMs and agentic development & agent-based architectures, SAP Business AI, and MCP-based integrations — and I help teams and customers do the same, as mentor, workshop lead, and honest advisor.
