AI keynote talks

Speaking & Keynotes

As a speaker I make AI tangible: for leaders who want to know what it means for their company, and for engineering teams that need to ship reliably. Keynotes and talks for conferences, corporate events and leadership offsites.

Current Talk

Help, My Job Doesn't Make Sense Anymore – Thanks, AI

AI is currently calling into question what software engineers actually do. This keynote takes that uncertainty seriously, without sliding into alarmism or techno-optimism: what's really changing, what stays a core skill – and how engineering stays a job that makes sense. Engineering depth instead of AI buzzwords, with real examples from daily practice in a software team.

Topics

What I talk about

AI in your company: what really helps

Where AI saves time in everyday business today, where it does not yet, and how to start without a big project.

From AI experiment to production

A field report from introducing AI in a software company: numbers, failures and the rules that stayed.

Working with AI in software teams

What changes for developers when agents write code: less typing, more deciding, and shared rules that hold.

On stage

Technically credible and still entertaining

I have been consulting companies since 2018, lead an engineering team as Head of Engineering and host more than 20 AI Nights evenings a year. The audience gets both: real experience and a talk that doesn't drag. Every talk ends with three things you can do yourself on Monday.

  • Consultant and trainer since 2018, founder of AI Nights
  • More than 200 workshops, consulting engagements and hosted events
  • Former lecturer at iba University of Cooperative Education, Nuremberg
  • German and English
