Johannes Vass is an AI Architect based in Vienna with 11 years of experience combining research-grade optimization and planning expertise with production AI and software architecture. He has led AI initiatives and a community of practice at Cloudflight and now shapes AI solutions at Nagarro, bringing both people leadership and hands-on system design. His background includes undergraduate research at TU Wien on planning and scheduling and nearly three years of HPC and full‑stack work at Catalysts completed alongside his studies. Johannes contributes to open-source sustainability efforts like electricitymaps, where he automated backend data ingestion and parsing for real‑time CO2 visualisations. He is strong at bridging algorithmic thinking (optimization, audio processing, ML) with pragmatic engineering for maintainable, high‑performance systems. Colleagues would describe him as a technically curious architect who turns complex research problems into production-ready software.
