AI Consulting in the Tuttlingen, Sigmaringen & Zollernalb Region
Production-grade AI for the Mittelstand between the Danube valley and the Swabian Alb — on-site and remote.
I'm based in Fridingen an der Donau in the Tuttlingen district. Companies in Tuttlingen, Spaichingen, Trossingen, Sigmaringen, Albstadt, Balingen or Hechingen are usually within 30–45 minutes — for workshops, architecture sessions and team enablement I'm on-site at short notice, with delivery continuing efficiently remote.
The region is industrially strong and highly specialized: Tuttlingen as the world center of medical technology with strict documentation and audit requirements, the Zollernalbkreis with precision tooling and machine building, plus textile, metal and supplier businesses in the Sigmaringen district. That's exactly where my two focus areas apply: modernizing grown software landscapes and introducing AI agents that work traceably, auditably and EU-AI-Act-compliantly — production operations, not demo theater.
As an Anthropic-certified AI consultant with 10+ years of software architecture experience, I combine both: the language of industrial SMEs and the current state of agentic AI, MCP servers and Claude Code.
Services for companies in the region
On-site AI strategy workshop
One day at your site: where does AI genuinely pay off in your processes, what is hype? Concrete use-case scoring, risk and compliance assessment (EU AI Act), a prioritized roadmap — clear for both management and IT.
Agentic AI & MCP servers for the Mittelstand
AI agents that may touch your systems need a control layer. I build MCP server infrastructure with verification loops, cost control and guard rails — keeping automation production-safe instead of a blind flight.
Legacy modernization for industrial companies
Systems grown over decades slow down every release. I modernize incrementally using the strangler-fig pattern and domain-driven design — proven with 20+ modules extracted from an enterprise codebase, without big-bang risk.

Frequently asked questions from the region
What companies between the Danube valley and the Alb ask before working together.
Within what radius are you available on-site?
Core region: the Tuttlingen and Sigmaringen districts and the Zollernalbkreis — usually reachable from Fridingen a.d. Donau within 30–45 minutes. Rottweil, Villingen-Schwenningen, the Lake Constance area and Ulm work well too. Beyond that I work remotely across DACH.
Which regional industries does your profile fit?
Especially medical technology (Tuttlingen), precision tooling and machine building (Zollernalbkreis) and industrial suppliers: wherever traceability, auditability and regulatory requirements matter, auditable AI plays to its strengths. Regional references: Gühring (Albstadt) and Hammerwerk Fridingen.
How does an engagement typically start?
With a no-obligation scoping call (remote, 30–45 minutes). Then usually an on-site workshop: review processes, score use cases, prioritize a roadmap. Delivery then runs as a mix of remote work and on-site milestone sessions.
Do you commit to a specific AI technology?
Technology-open with a clear focus: Anthropic Claude and Claude Code for agent workflows, MCP servers as the integration standard, Java/Spring Boot for backend modernization. What matters is not the model but the control layer around it — verification loops, guard rails, audit trail.
