Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolNico Axtmann is an engineering leader with 11 years of hands-on experience building and scaling ML systems across cloud, mobile, and embedded platforms, now shaping platform engineering at Platform Engineering Labs in Berlin. He specializes in MLOps, cloud architecture (AWS, Terraform, Kubernetes) and turning research prototypes into production services that run at scale—examples include platforms decoding 10,000+ audio hours daily and infrastructures deploying thousands of models concurrently. As a founding engineer and principal MLOps architect, Nico helped products secure seed and Series A funding and introduced developer-first tooling and CI/CD practices that accelerated delivery. He thrives in chaotic, early-stage environments where rapid iteration and signal-driven design trump perfection, a mindset that earned him the nickname "Deadpool" at his previous lab. Outside of work he trains in CrossFit and chases alpine paragliding goals, reflecting a taste for high-skill, high-adrenaline challenges that mirror his engineering approach.
