Dr. Sven Seiler is Managing Director of Storm Reply and a Partner in the Reply Group. He practises Agentic Engineering himself, not only at the strategy level: he builds software with AI agents — from a base template repository through Claude Code to MCP servers and subagent architecture. He is an AWS Ambassador and founder of the Agentic Shift community as well as the AWS User Groups Dortmund and Düsseldorf. His focus is enterprise-grade AI software development — including the Reply delivery model Silicon Shoring, which orchestrates AI agents across the full software lifecycle — alongside digital sovereignty and the AWS European Sovereign Cloud. He earned his PhD in mechatronics at Tallinn University of Technology (TalTech), with a thesis on remote and virtual labs (“Laboratory as a Service”) in the context of Industry 4.0 and IoT.
