Subject

I'm enterprise architect for data analytics at Bosch and a senior technical professional in Bosch's global data strategy team. Besides, I'm guest researcher and lecturer at the University of Stuttgart. My overall area of expertise is industrial analytics, i.e., data management and data analytics in industrial value creation, with a current focus on data lakes and data strategies.

Read my Communications of the ACM paper on "There is No AI Without Data" to get an overview of my current work.
