Senior🎓
Top SchoolNils Michaelis is a seasoned engineering leader with 14 years of experience guiding product-focused software organizations across Switzerland and beyond. Currently Director Engineering & Technology at Brack.Alltron, he has a track record of building high-performing teams, driving cultural transformations, and aligning product vision with delivery — from founding Marketing-Tech teams at Digitec Galaxus to establishing development in Zürich for Migros Online. He led software efforts behind the world’s first non-invasive, calibration-free glucose measurement device validated in a peer-reviewed clinical study, demonstrating his ability to shepherd deeply technical, regulated products to clinical validation. Nils combines hands-on engineering roots (including WebGL research at Fraunhofer and early freelance development) with strategic leadership in corporate splits, agile practices, and product management. Based in the Zürich metro area and grounded in digital media and technical study, he emphasizes unlocking team potential through clarity and nurturing leadership rather than top-down control. Colleagues describe him as a culture-first technologist who turns complex cross-functional challenges into sustainable organizations and shipped outcomes.
