LIGHTHOUSE PROJECTS



Service-oriented IT rollout

In a Swiss insurance group I served as project lead for the rollout of a service-oriented IT operating model with a transparent IT service portfolio of clearly defined services and responsibilities. The cost and performance transparency we built up made IT service costs available at the push of a button. Cost allocation by usage was implemented through group-wide service level agreements (SLAs) in line with the OECD transfer pricing guidelines.


Digital transformation in professional sports

As CTO/Head IT I drove the digital renewal. I shaped the IT and cloud strategy, implemented a transparent service catalogue and optimized processes to support training, match operations and management with the best possible digital solutions. In the process I saw first-hand how digitalization in the sports business has already become a decisive success factor in many areas.


IT security in mobile banking

For a Swiss private bank, mobile banking security was the focus of a project. I designed the IT security architecture for mobile applications (including encryption, multi-factor authentication and secure network connections). With this project we were able to reduce growing fraud risks through robust security measures while at the same time enabling further innovative mobile services.
