What colleagues say

Manuel is a highly committed colleague who takes responsibility and reliably drives things forward. With his enthusiasm for AI, DevOps, and new technologies, he provides key momentum and actively fosters innovation—both within the team and across the wider organization. Throughout it all, he remains consistently helpful and collegial, serving as a valued point of contact for many.

Dorothea Bublies, Product Owner, Deutsche Bahn

Manuel helped build our AI harness for software development from the ground up and played a decisive role in advancing it through continuous development.

René Hengstermann, AI Engineering Lead, Deutsche Bahn

Manuel is a terrible colleague. Just imagine it like this: whatever you're convinced you're really good at — chances are, he can do it at least a little bit better, whether it's technical work or interacting with people. Joking aside, he is one of the most dedicated, likeable, and highly skilled colleagues I have ever had the pleasure of working with in my 26-year career—outstanding both professionally and personally.

He is reliable, takes ownership, champions the DevOps mindset, and is always a pioneer. He is helpful, a true repository of knowledge, and acts as a mentor—always eager to share what he knows with others.

❤️ He will be sorely missed. ❤️

Andreas Schwarz, Principal Platform Engineer, Deutsche Bahn
