I help researchers, biotech companies, and scientific organizations build AI-powered research workflows, analyze complex biological datasets, develop scientific software and transform experimental data into actionable insights. I am a PhD-trained Computational Biologist and Data Scientist with over 14 years of experience in biological research and scientific data analysis. I am also a cofounder of DataLens.Tools, where we design AI-powered knowledge systems, research automation tools, scientific data analysis platforms, retrieval-augmented applications and custom AI workflows for research and industry. I specialize in computational biology, bioinformatics, machine learning, scientific Python development and AI-powered research workflows. I help researchers, biotech teams and scientific organizations transform complex biological data into actionable insights through data analysis, computational modeling and custom software solutions.
Alongside my research and computational work, I have experience teaching and mentoring students and researchers in biological data analysis, Python, statistics, machine learning and computational research methods. I particularly enjoy helping researchers understand not only how to use computational tools, but also why a particular analytical or machine-learning approach is appropriate for their scientific question.
My expertise spans computational biology, bioinformatics, machine learning, scientific image analysis, cheminformatics, protein modeling and data visualization. I also have extensive experience working with fluorescence microscopy, calcium imaging, electrophysiology datasets and high-dimensional biological data.

Is your team losing hours to manual data processing, format conversions, or repetitive document tasks? I build the tools and scripts that eliminate that work: reliable, low-maintenance, and built to last.
With 20+ years of delivering automation and data solutions across industries, I turn complex requirements into clean, working software. Clients come back because the result actually holds up: no duct tape, no black box — just solid code their team can understand and maintain. I adapt the technology to your project (Python, C#, Java, XSLT, JavaScript), not the other way around.
What I deliver:
• Data Extraction & Conversion – Pull and transform data from XML, JSON, CSV, Excel, or legacy formats into PDF, HTML, Word/Excel, databases, or plain text — write once, publish everywhere.
• Document & Publishing Automation – XSLT transformations, single-source publishing pipelines, automated layout and content placement (including Adobe InDesign scripting).
• Workflow Automation – Scripts that eliminate manual steps, schedule processing, and enforce consistency across your data — so nothing falls through the cracks and no one has to babysit the process.
• Custom Tools & Utilities – Command-line tools and lightweight desktop apps (Python, C#, Java) for data processing, report generation, or system-specific tasks.
• System Integration – Connect disparate systems so data flows between them without manual intervention.
I communicate throughout — not just at delivery. You'll always know where things stand, and you'll get documentation so your team isn't dependent on me afterward.
If you have a data, automation, or document challenge, let's talk. I'll give you an honest picture of what's feasible and the smartest approach for your situation.

- Redundant Ceph storage, HA systems, autohealing - no downtime during regular maintenance anymore!
I am a passionate German IT professional specializing in Linux system administration, managed hosting, and DevOps. From my work as an operational IT security specialist, I also bring solid expertise in secure infrastructures and security-focused configurations.
My focus is on pragmatic, reliable, and secure solutions - from server and hosting environments through deployment pipelines to the automation of recurring technical tasks. I help companies run their Linux-based infrastructure in a stable, maintainable, and secure way.
Concrete, in-depth experience in:
- Managed hosting (incl. redundant Ceph storage, HA systems, autohealing)
- Automation with Ansible
- CI/CD and DevOps workflows
- Application virtualization with Docker
- Python scripting
- Virtualization with Proxmox
- General system administration on Debian-based systems
Where it makes sense, I deliberately use modern AI tools - e.g. for documentation, analysis, scripting, and AI-assisted development on client projects.
For my clients - from small and medium-sized businesses to individual project teams - I have set up and maintained a broad range of services, including:
- Identity and Access Management (IAM), including SSO for all connected applications
- Email and web services (Mailcow, Stalwart, Plesk)
- Ticketing system (Zammad)
- Monitoring (various, including Grafana, CheckMK, Zabbix)
- File sharing with Nextcloud
- CRM setup as needed (EspoCRM)
This naturally also includes configuring a variety of physical and virtual servers, routers/firewalls (OPNsense), various WireGuard VPN connections (site-to-site, end-to-site), and much more. I additionally bring foundational experience with cloud environments such as Microsoft 365 and AWS.
