AI ENGINEERING FROM STUTTGART
I build AI agents, RAG systems and LLM integrations that work with your data, tools and day-to-day processes. Workshops and project kick-offs can take place on site in Stuttgart; delivery can then continue in a hybrid setup or remotely across Germany.

LOCAL WHEN IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE
Many AI projects start with a technical question but quickly involve several departments, data sources and established processes. At the beginning of a project, it is often useful to bring everyone around the same table.
For workshops, architecture sessions and kick-offs, I can join you in Stuttgart or the surrounding region by arrangement. Development can then continue efficiently remotely, in a hybrid setup or embedded in your existing team.
STUTTGART REGION
Stuttgart and the surrounding region are shaped by automotive, mechanical engineering, IT and many highly specialized SMEs. In this environment, deep domain knowledge, extensive documentation and long-established system landscapes often meet.
This is where AI can create tangible value: not as a disconnected chatbot, but as part of existing processes. The important factors are access to the right information, clear permissions, reliable integrations and a realistic path from the first pilot to production.
As a fullstack developer and AI engineer, I do more than connect a language model. I also build the application, interfaces, data flows and operational processes that turn an AI feature into a dependable software system.
HOW I CAN HELP
Some companies already have a prototype; others start with a process that simply takes too much time. I help with technical assessment, architecture, development, integration and operations.
Internal assistants that make information from documents and knowledge sources accessible—with suitable retrieval, source references, permissions, evaluation and monitoring.

These projects show three different settings: a complex multi-agent system in an enterprise environment, a focused RAG assistant for internal knowledge and an AI-supported application for data-driven location decisions.
AUTOMOTIVE · MULTI-AGENT · ENTERPRISE
An internal analytics tool coordinates several specialized agents, data sources and approved tools. The application presents complex results through a chat interface and streams intermediate progress in real time.
A multi-agent architecture integrated into existing enterprise systems for data-driven analysis.
RAG · KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT · PRODUCTION
A production AI assistant searches internal wiki content and reference documents. Hybrid retrieval, source references, authentication and monitoring make it dependable for everyday work.
A knowledge assistant used daily for internal policies and specialist questions.
AI · DATA INTEGRATION · SME
A custom application combines competitor data, prices, travel times, demographics and an AI-supported market assessment in one continuous research and decision workflow.
Reduced location research from several days to a few minutes and replaced multiple external data tools.
WORKSHOP AND DELIVERY
Thank you, Niclas, for the great support in automating receipt matching. We also gained many valuable insights from the ChatGPT automation workshop. Gladly again—I can recommend him without hesitation.
DIRECT SENIOR COLLABORATION
For clearly scoped, technically demanding projects, an experienced freelancer is often a strong fit when direct communication, fast decisions and technical ownership matter more than a large project organization.
From beginning to end, you speak with the person making the architecture decisions and actually building the system.
HOW WE CAN START
Not every project needs the same starting point. Depending on the situation, we begin with a workshop, a technical review or a tightly scoped pilot.
We clarify the goal, current situation, involved systems and expected value. You receive a direct assessment of whether and how I can help.
Remote · around 30 minutesTogether, we define the use case, users, data sources, integrations, risks and quality criteria. In Stuttgart, this session can also take place at your office by arrangement.
On site in Stuttgart or remoteI build a focused, realistic first use case with real data and a clear path into your existing software and operations landscape.
Hybrid or remoteAfter go-live, monitoring, quality measurement, feedback and controlled expansion follow. I can continue supporting the system long term if useful.
Remote across Germany
BASED IN STUTTGART, DIRECT IN COLLABORATION
I work from Stuttgart as a freelance AI engineer and senior fullstack developer. For more than seven years, I have been building software—from internal tools for SMEs to AI systems in enterprise environments.
As a former CTO, I think beyond the first prototype to architecture, prioritization, maintainability and operations. My clients work directly with me, without changing contacts or handovers to an unknown delivery team.
Workshops, architecture sessions and project kick-offs can take place in Stuttgart and the surrounding region by arrangement. I support ongoing development remotely across Germany or in a hybrid setup.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Answers about on-site sessions, project formats and working with me as an independent AI engineer.
Yes. Workshops, architecture sessions and project kick-offs can take place on site in Stuttgart and the surrounding region by arrangement. For ongoing development, a hybrid or mostly remote setup is usually the most efficient.
Yes. I work remotely across Germany and can join distributed or international teams. This page describes my location and the option of local meetings; it does not limit where I work.
The collaboration is particularly suitable for SMEs, technology companies, specialist departments and engineering teams that want to implement a specific AI use case, bring an existing prototype to production or add LLM capabilities to their software. My experience ranges from small project teams to enterprise environments.
Yes. Workshops are tailored to your starting point. Topics can include identifying useful use cases, technical feasibility, LLM and agent architectures, make-or-buy decisions or reviewing an existing prototype. The focus is your processes, not a generic AI presentation.
My focus includes RAG and knowledge systems, internal AI assistants, agentic workflows, multi-agent systems and LLM capabilities inside existing web applications. This also covers the required data flows, interfaces, user experiences, permissions, evaluation and operations.
Both are possible. I can independently own a clearly defined system or join your existing product, data or engineering team as a senior engineer. For larger projects, I can also collaborate with selected specialists without giving up technical ownership.
A senior freelancer is often a good fit when direct technical communication, fast coordination and clear ownership matter. For initiatives that require many disciplines and large teams in parallel, an agency may be more suitable. The concrete scope matters more than the label.
The first step is a free call of around 30 minutes. You then receive an honest assessment of the most useful next step. Depending on the situation, that may be a workshop, a technical review or a proposal for a tightly scoped pilot.
A USEFUL FIRST STEP
Whether you have an early idea, a concrete use case or an existing prototype, the free initial call helps us determine what makes technical and commercial sense—and whether I am the right implementation partner.
