Case Studies

Rebuilding delivery while the product was in motion.

I restructured the technology organization on the fly, without stopping ongoing work.

Challenge
Teams were mid-delivery, commitments were already made, and workflows were not working.
What I did
Rebuilt ownership across engineering, QA, DevOps and technical management; established release discipline and aligned business with engineering.
Result
Operating costs down ~50% (~€2M) in the first year while delivery got faster. BTEX launched on time.
40+people across 5 cross-functional teams
20+hires in six months
~50%lower operating costs in year one
€5.7MBTEX token sales in six months

From an early idea to a €8.1M acquisition.

I joined early and, in practice, led the IT function, building the platform and the team behind it from scratch in a market dominated by established players.

Challenge
Enter a crowded KYC/AML market with no prior domain experience, while balancing early customers' demands with long-term product growth.
What I did
Recruited a technical lead and core engineers, built the delivery model from scratch, and coordinated SDKs, APIs, AML, document data extraction and biometric integrations.
Result
From zero to 150+ customers in under two years. In 2021 Checkin.com acquired GetID for €8.1M.
~20people in the IT organization
36releases in two years
8,000+document types, 220+ countries
150+customers before acquisition
