My full name is Winfried Edmund Stephan Maus and I was born in 1970. I am a native German and Europe is my home.

I earn my living in IT, but I am not limited to being “an IT guy”: I am an independent critical and strategic thinker who gets the job done.

I have over three decades of professional experience in multi-cultural, geographically distributed international environments.

My current job title is Head of IT (again) and some of my previous job titles were (also) Head of IT,  Manager IT, Senior Consulting Engineer, Software Developer and Technical Writer.

I understand how things work in complex, distributed systems. I can write code. I can document, write and teach.

I happen to know a thing or two about getting complex IT projects done – either with a team, leading a team or – in true Sigma male fashion – as a one man army all on my own.

I love building IT infrastructures from scratch:

You can drop me by parachute over the Siberian Tundra, and when you come back a month later, I would have built a data center using the scrap metal I found on the ground.
