CV

Machine Learning Delivery Consultant

AWS

Incoming role (starting August 2026) within AWS Professional Services. Helping organizations design, build, and deploy production machine learning systems.

• Partner with customers to bring ML from prototype to production
• Bridge research-grade methods and real-world delivery constraints

Lead Research Scientist

Ethon

Lead the R&D function and shape the technical direction of Ethon’s visual inspection product — bridging research, a full-stack product rebuild, and cross-product strategy.

• Oversee the rebuild of Ethon’s visual inspection product from on-premise to a cloud-native architecture, orchestrating across product design, infrastructure, and ML
• Set the research agenda and drive results into the product — including training-free visual inspection (no per-product model training), now shaping the vision
• Work to unify Ethon’s product lines and capture cross-product synergies, weighing commercial alongside technical trade-offs
• Rethink how applications are distributed and kept up to date across edge deployments, easing delivery bottlenecks — with ethon-cli as one concrete outcome
• Mentor research scientists and engineers, and help grow the team

Senior Research Scientist

Ethon

Established Ethon’s R&D function, defining its mission and processes for innovation in visual industrial AI. Enabled collaboration between research and engineering.

• Designed R&D processes for scientific exploration
• Built infrastructure for rapid experimentation
• Aligned research with product strategy

Product Owner

Ethon

Led the development of an AI-powered product for industrial anomaly detection, balancing software engineering, algorithmic innovation, and cross-functional leadership.

• Owned the visual-inspection product now scaled to global deployment at customers including Siemens — featured in the World Economic Forum’s Proof over Promise report (2026)
• Delivered production-grade reliability, with no unplanned line stoppages reported across nearly three years of live deployment
• Defined and owned product roadmap in close collaboration with end-users
• Led a cross-functional team of up to seven across engineering, research, and QA, coordinating delivery across the product
• Actively contributed to hiring and onboarding across the organization
• Spoke on the Innovator Stage at the AI+X Summit 2024, a leading Swiss AI conference, on Ethon’s manufacturing AI

Machine Learning Engineer

Ethon

Joined as one of the first employees at Ethon, playing a pivotal role in the initial development of its computer vision product stack.

• Worked across backend, frontend, ML model development, DevOps, and QA
• Built and deployed early prototypes used in pilot deployments
• Collaborated closely with customers to shape feature development and UX

Research Assistant (PhD)

ETH Zurich

PhD in machine learning and computational neuroscience, working in an interdisciplinary environment.

• Focus on continual learning and Bayesian neural networks
• Published at conferences such as NeurIPS, ICLR, ICML.
• Teaching and infrastructure development
