FULL-STACK & AI ENGINEER / AGENTIC ENGINEERING LEAD
Felix Koschmidder

A decade across startups, agencies and corporates — from insurance to AI, and now leading how my team builds with agents — has shown me what makes engineering teams thrive. Seeing the people around me grow excites me more than growing myself. I lead with empathy but won’t shy from the bold call, and I believe great collaboration starts with clear expectations and open, direct communication.

// 02Agentic engineering
How I run it: systematic, measured, and designed like any other production system.
Cost by evidence
Benchmarks decide which model runs which step. Frontier models where they pay off, smaller ones where they don’t.
Observability
Every agent run is traced with Langfuse and related tools, so cost, latency and quality are visible per step.
Context architecture
Flows and structure that give each agent session exactly the context it needs: relevant, current and nothing more.
Separated roles
Deliberate prompt engineering with clear roles: a frontier model implements without gate rules, a dedicated review agent enforces quality.
