IT Consultant @ Cluster Reply — .NET, Azure, and agentic AI.
I design and modernize .NET systems that people actually depend on, and I spend a lot of my time these days on where AI agents fit into that work.
After a dual study program in Business Information Systems (B.Sc.), I worked at Swiss Life Germany on applications used daily by more than 13,000 advisors. Today I own the maintenance and evolution of a .NET 4.8 legacy application, make the architecture calls, and help the client prioritize the epics on the way to a modern .NET 9 MAUI solution.
AI-assisted development is a fixed part of that day: I work with Claude Code and GitHub Copilot daily, build AI agents and my own MCP servers, and follow the agentic space firsthand.
Away from the keyboard you'll find me in the mountains — hiking in summer, skiing in winter.
My reference architecture for modern e-commerce systems: eight microservices on .NET 10, cut
along Clean Architecture and Domain-Driven Design boundaries, with CQRS over MediatR and a
Result<T> pattern throughout instead of exceptions. Every service owns its PostgreSQL database
and communicates asynchronously over Azure Service Bus with the Outbox/Inbox pattern.
