What I'm doing

01Role

Group Lead, Software Factory

AUMOVIO (formerly Continental) · since 2022

My group builds software that supports automotive production — the solutions and agentic systems that keep the lines monitored, steered, and running. Alongside that we own the platform and tooling side: CI/CD, cloud-native delivery, and developer productivity.

02Building

Agentic systems for production

Multi-agent, built on MCP

Beyond developer assistance, I build multi-agent systems that watch real production: monitoring IT and shop-floor systems, steering and replanning around disruptions like a missing supply, and troubleshooting outages by correlating signals into a root-cause hypothesis — like tracing a station that keeps running dry back to a clock skew that left the AGV fleet delivering parts out of sequence, not to the robots everyone suspects.
