How I Can Help

I bring technical clarity so you can stop second-guessing and start shipping.

Tech Advisory

Where can AI actually move the needle and where is it just hype? I help founders and executives cut through complexity and choose the right path before it gets expensive to change course.

Tech Due Diligence

I dig into codebases, infrastructure, and team dynamics to give you a clear picture, before you sign the deal. For investors, acquirers, and boards who want the real state of things and not just the pitch deck.

Software Engineering

I architect and build systems for scale and reliability. From event-processing pipelines handling millions of records to production-ready infrastructure.

Hi, I'm Alan

Over the years I've co-founded companies in Berlin and Buenos Aires, led engineering teams, and built products for clients from fintech to fitness, across the US and Europe. Sometimes I've been the one writing the code, and sometimes the one advising on what to build.

That dual perspective is what I bring to every engagement. Hands-on technical depth combined with real business acumen.

Based in Berlin, remotely available everywhere. Fluent in English, German, and Spanish.
