Senior🎓
Top SchoolTobias Muehlbauer is a software engineering leader and entrepreneur with a PhD in computer science and over a decade of experience building high-performance data systems. He co-founded and led the commercial spinoff of the Hyper database—originating from his research at TUM—which was acquired by Tableau and later integrated into Salesforce, where he now leads Data Cloud & Tableau Query as SVP overseeing a globally distributed team of 60+. Tobias combines deep academic roots (Stanford, UIUC, SIGMOD contest winner and Google Doctoral Fellow) with hands-on product delivery, having grown the Munich site from 3 to 30+ engineers and scaled Hyper into production across analytics and transactional workloads. He is equally comfortable steering M&A and patent strategy as he is optimizing query engines and data connectivity, and he continues to advise and invest in startups. Outside work he pursues scuba diving, gastronomy and film, reflecting a curiosity that informs both his technical creativity and leadership.
