My name is **Bastian Nolte**.
I have over 28 years of professional experience in the IT field, as a **consultant**, **IT architect**, **trainer/facilitator**, and **software developer**, as well as in project management roles with and without personnel responsibilities.

I consider myself more of a **generalist** and **enabler** than a specialist. My broad knowledge allows me to help you find and implement efficient solutions for even complex problems.

I look forward to supporting you in initiating and successfully **driving change** and **innovation** processes.

A key focus of my work is helping clients design and implement **modern**, **reliable**, and **robust** end-to-end solutions that optimally meet **stakeholder needs**. To foster innovation and productivity, I deploy cutting-edge technologies – including deep integration of **AI tools**, such as **skilled AI agent teams**.

I can help you, for example, with consulting on, designing, and implementing cloud-based solutions, single-page applications (SPAs) using Web Components, modern Java/Spring applications, and building an IDP (internal developer platform).

In the last ten years, I have been mainly involved in projects in the insurance, industry and education sectors. My clients include companies like Capgemini Schweiz AG, ista (CK Hutchison), the Swiss Accident Insurance Fund (Suva), CSS Health Insurance, Volkswagen, Siemens, msg Systems, T-Systems and various institutions, like the Berlin State Library, the East Asian Institute, as well as various state authorities and councils.

We use agile development methods, frameworks and mechanisms, such as Scrum, LeSS, Continuous Integration, test-driven development, mob- and pair-programming, combined with process-supporting software like Atlassian JIRA and Confluence.

I possess a broad range of expertise in enterprise software architecture, enterprise development, and AI tooling, as well as in the most common programming languages and frameworks.

Although my current focus is more on consulting and hands-on architecture within the AI and cloud space, this knowledge significantly supports me in collaborating with my clients to design and implement efficient and resilient solutions.

#### The Job Ledger — Agentic Opportunity CRM

[Source: https://bastian-nolte.name/en/resume#project-ai-job-search](https://bastian-nolte.name/en/resume#project-ai-job-search)

- **Role:** Full-stack: Research, Architecture, Test, Development, Operating
- **Period:** 2026-04 – present
- **Tags:** ai, agentic, claude, automation, java, spring-boot, graalvm, frontend, lit, typescript, n8n, postgresql, openapi, dashboard, fullstack, kubernetes, gitops, devops, architecture, development

Design, implementation and operation of a fully automated, AI-powered job / project search as well as a specialised mini-CRM with AI-assisted message generation.

The entire project was designed and implemented together with a team of Claude Code agents.

Details:

Matching IT projects and jobs are discovered across a total of 9 web platforms, deduplicated, and then scored by a three-stage AI pipeline against a versioned skill profile. Incoming e-mails are processed as well.

The orchestration is a bundle of workflows in n8n, a workflow-automation engine, with PostgreSQL as the database.

The actual discovery happens in specialised n8n workflows, while general actions such as deduplication and scoring orchestration are factored out into their own workflows. A further workflow processes the incoming e-mail requests.

The whole thing is orchestrated by a central launcher that dynamically discovers every published discoverer and calls them in parallel. Once the discoverers have finished their work, the aforementioned deduplication (hybrid — byte-exact collapse + Haiku adjudicator) and the scoring run; n8n merely orchestrates — the judgement is made in the Spring service.

The scoring itself is a three-stage pipeline: Claude Haiku extracts the requirements including their strictness (must/should/plus) and the working conditions from the posting, Claude Sonnet passes a verdict on every requirement with a verbatim citation from a versioned skill profile, and deterministic Java computes the score from that — with knock-out gates for incompatible working conditions, caps for missed must-haves, and separate subscores for professional fit and conditions. Every result is explainable: the dashboard shows the verdict table with evidence, gate reasoning and verification flags — and every judgement can be corrected or confirmed there with a single click. Those corrections feed a versioned scoring policy whose rule changes must pass a regression suite of real, anonymised postings before they are published.

A Spring service hosts the scoring pipeline, exposes the data over a REST API and additionally enables the automatic, AI-assisted creation of message templates based on the job / project posting, my CV and further parameters.

Visualisation and message editing happen in the browser via a single-page application (Google Lit + Signals).

A dashboard shows statistical data and lets you choose which discovery runs to display in a tree view.
The processed listings are presented in a table. Besides the usual filtering options, the data can also be searched in natural language: Claude Haiku turns a free-text query into a JavaScript predicate, which the user can then freely adjust inside the application.

A deterministic-first message creator drafts outreach — Java substitutes the template placeholders, Claude Opus fills only the marked gaps, and a byte-exact verification step guards against drift; templates without gaps skip the LLM entirely. Every message is grounded in the posting's scoring run — verdicts with their feedback overlay, evidence as resume deep links, conditions as facts — and if the run is missing, a click scores on demand. Each stored message pins the scoring run, profile and template version; the generated text remains immutable.

Delivery is via GitOps: multi-arch images to GHCR; the ArgoCD image-updater writes released image tags back to git, and a Kubernetes cluster behind Traefik and Cloudflare rolls them out. Monitoring and analytics run through Grafana and Umami; the scoring pipeline emits OpenTelemetry traces per stage — models, token usage, verdict distribution — into a self-hosted Grafana Tempo.

![System architecture of the agentic job search: an n8n discovery pipeline writes to PostgreSQL Data Tables, a GraalVM-native Spring Boot service exposes them over an OpenAPI contract, and a Lit + Signals dashboard consumes the API; a three-stage pipeline (Claude Haiku extraction, Claude Sonnet verdicts, deterministic Java score) rates listings and Claude Opus drafts outreach.](https://bastian-nolte.name/assets/ai-project-search-diagram.svg)

**Activities performed:**
- Planning, creation and configuration of the monorepo — path-scoped releases per project (semantic-release) and a rebase-merge pull-request workflow — plus DevOps and testing.
- Planning and creation of various n8n workflows, including: email inbox triage, central control workflow, discoverer, completion barrier, enricher, scorer, deduplicator and JSON-Schema validator
- Planning and creation of the REST and AI services with Spring Boot 4 and Java 25, compiled to lightweight GraalVM native images
- Design and implementation of the three-stage AI scoring pipeline: requirement extraction with Claude Haiku, verdict matching with Claude Sonnet against a versioned skill profile, deterministic score computation in Java with knock-out gates, caps and separate subscores — every verdict backed by a cited piece of evidence
- Construction of the learning loop: correction and confirmation UI in the verdict table (append-only feedback), skill profile and scoring policy versioned in Git and published to PostgreSQL, plus a regression suite of real, anonymised postings
- Observability: OpenTelemetry instrumentation per pipeline stage (GenAI conventions) and deployment of a Grafana Tempo backend via Argo CD
- Creation of a spec-first contract: an OpenAPI document acts as the single source of truth and as interface documentation. The Java models, the TypeScript types and the Contract Facts for the LLM are generated automatically from this source
- Planning and creation of the web frontend with histograms, a table, support for complex filters and a message assistant, built with minimal runtime dependencies on Google Lit + Signals and Chart.js
- Support for natural-language queries: Claude Haiku translates a free-text question into a sandboxed JavaScript filter that runs client-side and is edited in the CodeMirror editor, including sort and limit directives
- Planning and implementation of the deterministic-first message creator: Java substitutes the placeholders of versioned templates, Claude Opus fills only marked gaps and decides conditional blocks, a byte-exact structural verification discards any drift — templates without markers skip the LLM entirely
- Grounding of the message generation in the pinned scoring run — verdicts with feedback overlay, evidence as resume deep links, conditions as facts; score-on-demand and a lead-source toggle in the dialog, every stored message pins run, profile and template version
- Application tracking in the dashboard — status, reason and duplicate handling via PATCH with optimistic updates; end-to-end tests with Vitest browser mode and Playwright; Biome for lint and format

#### Agentic Inbox Triage for Job and Project Mail

[Source: https://bastian-nolte.name/en/resume#project-ai-mail](https://bastian-nolte.name/en/resume#project-ai-mail)

- **Role:** Architecture, Development, Operations
- **Period:** 2026-06 – 2026-06
- **Tags:** javascript, automation, n8n, self-hosted, imap, email-triage, ai, claude, claude-haiku, llm-orchestration, agentic, langchain, kubernetes, mcp, architecture, devops

n8n workflow hosted on an on-premise Kubernetes cluster that triages inbound business mail end to end. Each message is split into body and PDF / DOCX attachments, normalised to Markdown text through dedicated extractor nodes, and passed through a three-stage Claude Haiku chain: classification into job offer, project request, or noise; a fit-check against the resume Markdown returning a structured accept / decline / clarify verdict; and a tailored draft reply parked for review rather than sent automatically (human in the loop). Matched messages are filed into a dedicated IMAP folder. Authored using a Claude Code Agent Team against the n8n MCP server and deployed behind Cloudflare Tunnel and Access.

![Pipeline diagram of the inbox-triage workflow: IMAP poll → attachment split → PDF/DOCX text extraction → context aggregation → three-stage Claude Haiku chain (classify, fit-check, draft reply) → IMAP folder filing.](https://bastian-nolte.name/assets/inbox-triage-diagram.svg)

*High-level architecture of the inbox-triage workflow.*

**Activities performed:**
- Three-stage Claude Haiku chain on every incoming mail: classification into job offer / project request / noise, a fit-check against the resume Markdown returning a structured accept / decline / clarify verdict, and a tailored draft reply parked for review
- IMAP trigger polling a personal mailbox; a JavaScript Code node fans each message out into one row per body plus one row per PDF / DOCX attachment, drops unsupported binary types and preserves the source UID for later filing
- Attachment normalisation: a Switch routes by file type — PDFs via the Extract-From-File node with joinPages, DOCX via a Code node that shells out to pandoc and emits GitHub-Flavoured Markdown, plain bodies pass through
- Merge + Aggregate recombine bodies and attachment text into a single context document with clear separators, ready for the LLM stack
- LangChain Text Classifier node backed by Claude Haiku 4.5 at temperature 0, with a discard branch for the noise category so only relevant mail proceeds
- Fit-check stage loads the resume Markdown as context and returns a structured verdict (accept / decline / clarify) plus surfaced red flags before any draft is generated
- Reply-draft stage conditions on the fit verdict, produces an acceptance, polite decline, or targeted clarifying questions, and parks the draft for review rather than sending it directly
- IMAP MoveEmail node files matched messages from INBOX into a dedicated INBOX.n8n.jobs folder by UID, keeping the inbox clean
- Workflow authored from Claude Code against the n8n MCP server (search_nodes, get_node_types, validate_workflow) and deployed onto a self-hosted n8n instance behind Cloudflare Tunnel and Access

This project was about planning and implementing a platform for the central distribution of tickets of Swiss attraction providers via a common it-platform. In addition to offering tickets, we implemented features such as weather information, opening hours, ride times, and billing.

In this startup project, I had a multifunctional role. Initially, I was mainly involved in consulting and training to then subsequently support the setup of an Azure cloud environment and the development of the overall solution (hands-on).

In the beginning, I provided training on process models from project organization, such as SCRUM and Kanban. Then, in joint workshops, we evaluated which software best met our requirements. We then set up this software together and integrated its use into our daily processes.

After introducing essential tools such as Atlassian Jira, Confluence, Mural and Zoom, we moved towards more development-related topics.

In the second phase, we continued to build understanding and technical foundations for agile software development in workshops. Topics included continuous integration and deployment, the test pyramid, and code quality topics such as SOLID, TDD, mob and pair programming, and KISS.

In the third phase, we jointly designed and implemented a minimum marketable product (MMP). We built the development and integration environments, configured and provisioned the Azure cloud resources and performed the software development. In the grid below, you will find information on the technologies used.

In the RiskPricing programme, the processes for premium assessment and the systems for setting premium rates were redeveloped, taking into account the industry, risk community, bonus-malus and experience rating, and new large claims and reinsurance solutions were also implemented.

A solution was created for analysing the current risk situation and the financial situation, taking into account information from the risk information system and the adcubum SYRIUS insurance software, based on which the premium situation can be assessed and the reduction of compensation reserves calculated.

With the inclusion of the bonus-malus models and the experience rating, simulations can be carried out to set the premium rates in occupational accident and non-occupational accident insurance lines. In addition, the calculation and creation of the basic sheets and the generation of the raw data for digital printing in the context of customer communication take place in the newly created system.

**Activities performed:**
- Support the Scrum Master and the solutions architect in the rough estimation of the project effort and identify possible project risks.
