Abstract
Hi, I’m Christian Zielinski, living in Düsseldorf, Germany. I work in technical architecture and technology leadership, with a focus on how large-scale IT systems can be designed, governed, and evolved in a sustainable way. My role involves leading architecture teams, shaping technology standards and reference architectures, and supporting organizations through modernization and change.
Much of my work sits between strategy and delivery. I’m interested in making architectural decisions explicit, understandable, and useful for the teams that have to live with them. This often means balancing long-term structure with short-term constraints, and favoring clarity and pragmatism over theoretical elegance.
I come from a computational physics background and still enjoy thinking about complex systems, abstractions, and trade-offs. Beyond enterprise and solution architecture, I maintain an interest in advanced and emerging technologies, including quantum computing.
For a more formal overview of my professional background, LinkedIn has the details.
