Manager · Cloud Engineering @ Avanade — Azure platforms + AI-augmented delivery, based in Vienna 🇦🇹
AI-augmented Azure delivery — Landing Zones, AKS/OpenShift, GitHub Copilot rollout. Latest project shipped up to 3× faster than a traditional engagement.
A decade in Azure. I lead engineering teams, design Azure platforms — Landing Zones (CAF and Sovereign), AKS / OpenShift, Functions and Web Apps — and embed AI-augmented delivery on top.
As one of the people responsible at Avanade for the GitHub Copilot rollout (compliance, licensing, enablement), I make AI tooling production-safe for enterprise teams.
- 🏗️ Leading cloud engineering at Avanade — architecture reviews, delivery shaping, growing the practice
- 🤖 Driving GitHub Copilot compliance, licensing and enablement across the org
- ☁️ Building Azure Landing Zones (CAF + Sovereign) for enterprise and regulated workloads
- ⚡ Shipping projects with Claude Code and spec-driven development — measurably faster, still production-safe
- 🏠 Running a self-hosted homelab (Proxmox, Ansible, ADR-documented) — private repo, happy to walk through it on request
| Principle | What it means |
|---|---|
| ✅ Spec-first | Clear intent and acceptance criteria — not just clever prompts |
| ✅ Pair, never autopilot | AI accelerates engineers; humans stay on the critical path |
| ✅ Compliance from day one | Governance, licensing and data boundaries baked into the workflow |
| ✅ Measurable uplift | Track delivery time and quality — replace gut feel with numbers |
