Top SchoolLukas Pfannschmidt is a Tech Lead specializing in low-latency, real-time ML platforms for financial crime detection, with 11 years of experience building systems that serve tens of millions of predictions daily across 30+ models. He drives platform designs that let data scientists ship models independently while preserving production safety via multilayered validation, canarying, and progressive traffic shifts. At Trade Republic he led a move from managed services to Kubernetes and built a ClickHouse-based feature store processing hundreds of millions of events per day, cutting costs and improving deployment flexibility. Previously at super.AI he scaled LLM-powered extraction systems, slashing inference latency and cloud spend while achieving SOC2 compliance with lean teams. He holds a PhD in Machine Learning from Bielefeld University and founded MemoForge, a B2C SaaS where he ran end-to-end product, engineering, GTM and P&L—demonstrating both deep technical craft and product-led operational ownership.
