Andreas Jörg

It started with building — serverless systems, AWS CDK, multi-account AWS environments designed from scratch. The deeper the work went, the clearer it became: cloud infrastructure only endures when the people behind it truly own what they’re running.

That realization led me to become an AWS Authorized Instructor. Not to leave architecture behind, but to complete it.

Today I architect secure AWS environments, deliver official AWS curriculum in German and English, and work beside engineering teams until the gap between design and understanding closes.

M.Sc. in Computer Science

Fluent: German, English

11 AWS Certifications

Architecting

I start with the architecture — understanding what’s already built, what’s missing, and what needs to change. Then I build alongside your team, not in isolation. Every decision is documented, codified, and transferred.

AWS Training & Mentoring

I teach the same way. Official AWS curriculum, delivered in German and English, grounded in the same real-world patterns your team will encounter in production.

Consulting

I work as a partner, with your team. By the time I leave, the infrastructure and the knowledge belong entirely to them.

If that aligns with what you're looking for, let's talk.
