About

Nils Lappenbusch.

German IT engineer, Microsoft Certified Trainer, builder of software products. Based in Buchs ZH, Switzerland, and ready to relocate to Singapore.

Profile

I started with an apprenticeship as an IT specialist for system integration in Germany in 2012. Since then I have worked as an IT consultant and project manager, as a system administrator, and from 2020 as a consultant and Microsoft Certified Trainer for Microsoft 365. In 2019 I moved to Switzerland, where I now work on Microsoft 365 and security for consulting firms.

My core is Microsoft 365: Exchange and mail flow, email security, Entra ID, Intune and the automation that ties it together. Next to that I build my own products, from a DMARC analytics platform to accessibility checking for PDFs, and I use AI where it saves real work.

What people notice when they work with me: I read before I change, I write things down, and I explain what I did in words the next person understands.

What comes next: I have spent several weeks living in Singapore and enjoyed it. I have built a rewarding career and a good life in Switzerland, and I want to build on that foundation in Southeast Asia. After Germany and Switzerland, Singapore is my deliberate next chapter, in a role where I own a system or an outcome. Why Singapore
