Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSteffen Müller is a sustainability-focused technology leader with 11 years of experience driving digital and climate transformations at enterprise scale, currently Global Director, Sustainability Technology Strategy at Salesforce. He blends deep technical fluency in cloud, DevSecOps and AI strategy with practical sustainability practice—helping organisations measure and reduce environmental impact through data-driven environmental accounting and Net Zero solutions. A skeptical perfectionist who values simplicity, he pairs strategy oversight with hands-on contributions to developer ecosystems (notably improving TYPO3 core API docs). He teaches biodiversity finance and co-runs a transformation advisory that bridges business and ecology, reflecting a rare mix of policy, commerce and conservation expertise. Active on industry boards and a frequent spokesperson, Steffen shapes public debate on the sustainability of AI as well as the use of AI for sustainability. Fluent in both technical and stakeholder-facing roles, he’s as comfortable leading GTM cloud strategy as he is explaining nested configuration options to developers.
