I’m Marielle, based in Bern, Switzerland. I am a pragmatic and detail-oriented Automation Specialist, focused on building solutions that hold up in the real world of growing companies.
After several years in the Berlin startup ecosystem, I combine a practical, results-driven mindset with academic grounding and hands-on experience. I have worked with clients across a wide range of industries and company stages, from solo founders and VC-backed high-growth startups to established firms in more conservative sectors.
This breadth allows me to adapt quickly and act as a reliable bridge between business needs, technical implementation, and high-quality execution.

Besides talking about Airtable all day, I’m fluent and comfortable working in English, German, French, and Dutch.
