Who’s behind this?

I’m Sven.

20+ years scaling tech organizations, many in regulated industries, and a deep dislike for software you can’t stand behind. My craft is the process of shipping cleanly, under real stakes.

The track record

Delivery where mistakes are expensive.

Across fintech, music tech, digital assets and crypto, including Switzerland’s first regulated digital-asset exchange, the constraint never changed: every change had to be provable, not just plausible.

What I actually own is the discipline of how software ships: making sure what goes out is something you can stand behind, traceable, tested, defensible.

Fintech

Banking, insurance, and digital assets, including Switzerland’s first regulated digital-asset exchange.

MusicTech

Restructured product organizations for delivery.

Crypto

Fixed delivery, then platform strategy, with security as the bar.

What I believe

Execution beats perfection.

Shipping reliable, tested code beats endlessly polishing in a vacuum. But “fast” only counts when you can still control and prove what you shipped. That’s the line Shipwright is built to hold.

Why I built Shipwright

AI let me build. It didn’t let me control.

AI coding tools let me build real software myself, after decades of delivery under real stakes. But what it built was a black box to me: fast, plausible, and impossible for me to prove three weeks later. So I encoded 20 years of delivery discipline into a harness the AI has to follow. That’s Shipwright.
