Matthias Lübken is an AI Engineer and product-savvy technologist with 15 years of experience applying cloud-native and infrastructure expertise to real business operations rather than demos. He has led product and engineering efforts across companies like Upbound, Instana, Giant Swarm and Red Hat, focusing on cloud management, Crossplane runtime and observability for Kubernetes. Matthias bridges hands-on engineering and product leadership—starting as an agile developer and coach and evolving into CPO-level roles—so he speaks both code and strategy fluently. He’s currently putting AI agents to work at TAVON.ai after building a cloud-agnostic management platform at emma, demonstrating a pattern of shipping production-grade platforms that simplify multi-cloud complexity. Known as “a PM trying to code” on GitHub, he combines pragmatic product instincts with developer empathy to move projects from prototype to operational scale. Based in Germany, he holds a Diplom in Computer Science and often focuses on making automation and runtime tooling genuinely useful for operators.
