Munich, Bavaria, Germany
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSebastian Troitzsch is a software engineering manager with a decade of experience at the intersection of energy systems and cloud software, holding an M.Sc. from RWTH Aachen and a PhD from TUM. He has led teams that turned research prototypes into production services—scaling a dynamic tariff optimization feature at gridX from tens to tens of thousands of households—and now manages engineering at flexa. His background blends model-driven research (MESMO multi-energy system tools and co-simulation platforms) with hands-on cloud engineering and product delivery for demand-side flexibility, smart grids and V2G use cases. He consistently bridges academic rigor and pragmatic engineering, bringing domain expertise in sector coupling and optimal control to commercial energy management systems. An international researcher who has worked across Germany and Singapore, he tends to approach product problems with a simulation-first, data-driven mindset.
