About Florian

GenAI & Cloud Architect (AWS Solutions Architect Professional) building the infrastructure that takes AI from prototype to production - securely, and at enterprise scale.

Most recently, as an external consultant on the Data & AI Cloud of a DAX corporation, I was one of three architects on the platform across AWS and GCP.
There I:

- Architected and built the central enterprise LLM Gateway (Google Apigee) - all major hyperscaler models behind unified authentication, deployed globally high-available. It handled 100k+ requests/day and $300k+ in tracked consumption within its first month.
- Built the multi-cloud automation that provisioned 4,000+ AWS accounts and GCP projects (landing-zone bootstrap, CDK pre-deployments) via Step Functions, CodeBuild, CDK and Terraform.
- Engineered a real-time token-metering pipeline into BigQuery, enabling consumption-based billing across the entire organization.

Through my company, W2 Automation, I now help businesses design and deploy production-grade AI applications on AWS and GCP that automate day-to-day operations - saving
time, cutting cost, and opening new revenue streams.

My focus is the hard part of enterprise AI: not the demo, but the production platform - authentication, governance, security, high availability, and the cost control (FinOps) that keeps AI affordable at scale.

What I can help you with:
- Enterprise GenAI platforms & LLM gateways
- Production AI agents & LLMOps
- Multi-cloud architecture & automation (AWS & GCP)
- Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, AWS CDK, Step Functions)
- Multi-account governance, security & cloud/AI FinOps

If you're moving GenAI into production - or drowning in manual work an AI agent could take over - let's talk.

    Founder of an AI & cloud consultancy. I help companies design and deploy production-grade AI agents and automations on AWS that take over repetitive
    day-to-day work.


    - AI agents on AWS: Build and deploy autonomous AI agents (Amazon Bedrock, Lambda, Step Functions) that automate operational workflows - saving clients
    time and cost, and in some cases opening new revenue streams.


    - End-to-end delivery: From use-case discovery and architecture through to secure, GDPR-compliant production deployment and handover.


    - Enterprise-grade by default: Bringing governance, security and cost control (FinOps) to AI projects of any size.

    via Cloud Run and Pub/Sub, enabling consumption-based billing org-wide.
    - Governance & IaC: Automated cross-account governance and security guardrails (EventBridge, Lambda, IAM) and migrated manual infrastructure to Terraform
    and AWS CDK.
