Hey, I'm Jan

Senior software engineer at an AI cybersecurity startup.
Wrapping up a neuroscience PhD on the side.

I design systems that secure agentic AI. Companies are handing LLMs and autonomous agents real authority. Something has to govern what those agents can see and do, inline, without latency anyone would notice. I architect that control plane, and handle the GPU inference platform it runs on. The platform sits in front of everything a company sends to AI, so it has to be fast, reliable, and observable.

Before industry I did neuroscience in Tübingen, at the Hertie Institute for Clinical Brain Research, the Werner Reichardt Centre for Integrative Neuroscience, and the Max Planck Institute for Biological Cybernetics, with a shorter stint at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. I worked with humans, primates, and rodents. The toolkit ran the full stack, from whole-brain MEG, EEG, and (f)MRI, through invasive electrophysiology, down to single cells with optogenetics and fiber-optic calcium imaging. All of it came down to pulling signal out of noisy, high-dimensional data.

The two jobs have the same shape. A large system, a weak signal, and one constraint that makes the rest legible. Get that constraint right and the architecture follows.
