Get to Know Me
A French-German-Arab engineer in Basel building data solutions across healthcare, regtech and enterprise governance — for nine-plus years, soon ten.
It's Benni, over 9×108 seconds old French-German-Arab soul based somewhere in the real world — currently Basel, Switzerland.
Music is my jam, software my bread and butter, and writing a way of expression which has been accompanying me since my 5th year of high school. I was using different media first (drawing, painting, calligraphy — the good old ones) and then moved on to writing poetry. Nowadays I feel the need (for both mental health and interest) to write prosody and to dial in once in a while.
I like to comment on topics related to sovereignty, technology, and solidarity. Let's see what I will be writing about.
I specialize in data integration, governance, and lifecycle management across regulatory technologies and healthcare — delivering sustainable data solutions. With over 9 years of experience, I've developed deep expertise in implementing data strategies and technical solutions that drive business value.
In data strategy and architecture, I focus on comprehensive lifecycle management through effective data modeling and technical implementation. I design robust, business-aligned systems while building data-driven organizational capabilities.
My technical excellence spans requirements engineering, where I bridge communication between business and technical teams, and software engineering for scalable data applications. As Technical Manager at HL7 Switzerland (FHIR-CH), I help drive healthcare data standardization efforts.
Business analysis & requirements engineering for pharmaceutical and biotech data solutions in a Life Sciences manufacturing context — system integration, data lifecycle management, operational reporting across R&D and production.
Leading software development initiatives & technical strategy for regulatory technology — open-source data infrastructure aligned with the BIRD standard and reporting frameworks for financial institutions.
Semantic data integration initiatives, FHIR data modelling, master data management frameworks. Contributing to HL7 Switzerland and the SNOMED French Translation Group.
Metadata modeling for banking supervision in the BIRD/SDD Team, SDMX methodology, data-driven process automation, and API integration for metadata repositories.
Machine learning research, exploratory data analysis, and data-driven applications across wind energy and industrial sectors. Where the journey began.
Always interested in connecting with fellow professionals to discuss data challenges and opportunities. Discovery call, weird idea, or just a hello — all welcome.
