Data & Research at MyGermanUniversity.
Data & Research at MyGermanUniversity — Germany's largest study-program database. 3M+ visitors annually, 150+ partner universities.
I build the data infrastructure and AI systems behind it: structured data pipelines, LLM-powered content tools, and automated monitoring that keeps 24,000+ program profiles accurate and up to date.
Background in comparative politics and tech policy. Day-to-day: prompt engineering, SEO, and figuring out where AI actually adds value vs. where it's just noise.
