bbv Software Services AG
Senior AI Engineer and AI Consultant
From the beginning of 2025 I was fully dedicated to the topic of artificial intelligence at bbv. My main responsibility was to design forward-looking AI solutions and bring them into productive use at client sites. In this role I supported companies in their digital transformation, optimised business processes, and created real value through targeted AI and data science solutions.
Co-Engineer of the Swiss AI Hub Platform
At the centre of my work was the Swiss AI Hub, a transparency- and sovereignty-driven open-source AI platform. As co-engineer and solution architect I was responsible for core components including the agent runtime, the RAG pipeline, and the evaluation and tracing infrastructure. Technologies used included Python, FastAPI, FastMCP, Milvus, Neo4j, LiteLLM, LlamaIndex, Langfuse, Keycloak, NATS, PostgreSQL, OpenTelemetry, and OpenInference, operated on Docker and OpenStack with Ansible-based automation.
Technical Lead on Client Projects
I accompanied client projects from use-case identification in workshops through proof of concept to MVP. This included architecture and security concepts as well as the selection of suitable models and infrastructure components. I also acted as a technical expert in pre-sales and contributed to two national tenders for AI platforms.
Knowledge Transfer: Webinars and Talks
Since late 2023 I delivered regular webinars, workshops, and talks on LLMs, AI Agents, the Model Context Protocol (MCP), and AI infrastructure. Over the course of this period I accumulated more than 30 appearances, including a talk at the Azure Cosmos DB Online Conference 2025 with around 2,000 participants, contributions to the AI practice circle of Next Industries, and sessions at AI bootcamps at FHNW. In parallel I shared my knowledge in client projects and internal training sessions, so that both clients and colleagues benefited from the latest trends and developments.
AI in Software Development
Alongside working on AI products, I made strong use of AI-assisted development, particularly with Claude Code (skills, agents, hooks). This brought the experience of being an end user directly back into the architecture and tooling of the platform.
