Summary
Michael Mueller is a CTO and co-founder with a decade of experience steering cloud-native and AI-first transformations for enterprises and scale-ups from Stuttgart. He builds platform engineering and sustainable IT strategies that bridge hands-on AI engineering with long-lived cloud-native operations, having advised or delivered for clients like Ole Larsen, Vandebron and seabo. Previously a senior leader at Container Solutions and Giant Swarm, he combines go-to-market and technical leadership—moving from Director of Technology to CCO and VP Solution Engineering—so he fluently translates strategy into production platforms. Michael also teaches DevOps leadership at Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and serves as a Senior Advisor for cloud strategy, reflecting a strong focus on people, governance and risk-informed design. Unusually for a CTO, his background spans operational network leadership in the Bundeswehr through large telco and media systems, giving him rare depth in resilient infrastructure and security-aware engineering.
