Description

Cloud and Confidential Computing Consultant | IT Officer | Security Architect

I support companies in securing their cloud infrastructures and enabling data protection during use with Confidential Computing.

My focus: Trusted Execution Environments (AMD SEV-SNP, AWS Nitro Enclaves, OP-TEE), Remote Attestation, and Vault Integration – for a new level of security for business-critical workloads.

With my dual background as an IT Officer in the German Armed Forces and a Cloud Security Consultant, I combine discipline, technical expertise, and compliance knowledge (ISO 27001, BSI C5, NATO D3.2) to achieve measurable results.

Core Competencies: Cloud Security Architecture (AWS, Azure, OpenStack), Kubernetes and Container Security, Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, Helm, Kubectl), IT Governance and Compliance Consulting.

Available part-time (8-16 hours/week) for consulting, architecture design, security reviews, and proof-of-concepts in civilian industries such as healthcare, finance, and Industry 4.0.
