Senior DevOps Engineer | System Architect | Open Source Advocate
I build resilient, deterministic, and sovereign IT infrastructure. My focus is on the symbiosis of legacy hardware and modern, cloud-native deployments (Docker, Podman, Proxmox, LXC) for highly regulated environments (BaFin, DORA, KRITIS).
โDigital sovereignty is not a political buzzword; it's a measurable technical state.โ
I am the creator of MoE Sovereign, a fully self-hosted, deterministically-routed Mixture-of-Experts orchestrator. It demonstrates how to run enterprise-grade, GraphRAG-augmented AI pipelines entirely air-gapped on heterogenous consumer and legacy GPUs.
