Building AI applications that make sense

With Zenze, I help businesses build AI solutions and products

Whether driven by technical challenges or real-world needs, Zenze guides you through every step of the journey: from figuring out what to build, to building it, and finally seeing real-world results.

What I do

Development

I build AI systems from scratch or improve what you have:

  • Solution design: Figure out what's worth building and what's technically possible in order to architect the right solution to your problem.
  • Implementation: Developing and rolling out AI-based applications or helping you build your solution
  • Models & Methodology: Training or fine-tuning models, improving RAG systems and building evaluation frameworks

Strategy

I help you figure out what to build and how:

  • Use case discovery: Find AI opportunities that move the needle for your business and customers
  • Build vs. buy: Helping you to decide when to build custom or use existing tools

Let's talk about your project.

ABOUT ME

Carl Philipp Senze

I'm Carl, and I've been building AI applications since before ChatGPT made it cool. I joined Aleph Alpha in October 2022 because I was excited by the transformer architecture and wanted to work at the cutting edge of what was possible with large language models.

Over 3+ years at Aleph Alpha, I progressed from AI Delivery Engineer to Senior AI Solutions Engineer. My work ranged from early discovery calls and use case exploration to bringing solutions to production. I worked across industries ranging from semiconductors to defense and public sector, taking on everything from technical architecture to leading engineering teams.

Before Aleph Alpha, I worked as a student research assistant at TU Dortmund's AI department and completed my master's thesis at the University of Amsterdam on semi-supervised learning on the hypersphere, supervised by Prof. Pascal Mettes. In 2024, I also spent time at Entrepreneur First in London, validating startup ideas and learning about the early stages of building companies through exposure to a wide range of industries and customer challenges.

Now with Zenze, I help growing businesses cut through the AI hype and build applications that actually deliver value.
