Senior🎓
Top SchoolGert Villemos is a seasoned technology leader with 15 years of experience building and securing complex space and enterprise software systems, currently serving as CTO and CISO at Leanspace in the Frankfurt Rhine-Main area. He architected ground-segment platforms that operate the majority of European satellites and drove organizational shifts—flow-aligned teams, lean startup product cycles, and ISO 27001/ITAR compliance—that cut time-to-market from months to weeks. Known for scaling small teams to do big work, he streamlined hiring to select top talent from thousands of applicants and applied AI across business processes to boost efficiency. His background spans hands-on systems engineering (SCOS-2000), enterprise architecture, and sales-led growth, giving him rare fluency across product, security, and commercial domains. Comfortable operating in both startups and large, politicized organizations, he combines technical depth in aerospace systems with pragmatic execution and tough, empathetic leadership. An early consultant on EUMETSAT and ESA architectures, he brings a long-term perspective on standards and interoperability that still shapes European space operations.
