About Benjamin

Ich helfe Unternehmen, ihre Daten und Teams KI-fähig zu machen, konform mit DSGVO und EU AI Act, von Anfang an mitgedacht.

Als Mitgründer und CTO von Maya Data Privacy verantworte ich Architektur und Roadmap einer Software, die sensible Daten direkt im Quellsystem anonymisiert, ohne Datentransfer und ohne den Datennutzen zu zerstören. Das verbinde ich mit über 20 Jahren Erfahrung in der Lieferung komplexer IT- und Produktvorhaben von der Strategie bis zum Go-Live.

Typische Mandate:

  • KI-Readiness und Identifikation der wertvollsten Anwendungsfälle für Mittelstand und Enterprise
  • Datenschutz und Governance für KI-Projekte (EU AI Act, DSGVO, DORA)
  • Produkt- und Datenstrategie, Softwareauswahl und Plattformkonzeption
  • Change Management und Transformationsstrategie für komplexe Veränderungsvorhaben
  • Interim Produkt- oder Technologieführung

Hintergrund:

VP of Products bei einem Unternehmen im Bereich Public Health, Senior Product Owner bei SAP, Keynote-Demo auf Hasso Plattners SAPPHIRE 2016, Master Business with AI, Harvard Disruptive Strategy.
Mein Anspruch: Klarheit über Nutzen, Risiken und Umsetzbarkeit und messbare Ergebnisse, nicht Methoden um der Methode willen.
Verfügbar remote in DACH und international, vor Ort nach Absprache.
