Thomas Holzknecht
Architect and Solution Engineer in 5 lakes, Bavaria, Germany
I am an experienced IT professional and Solutions Engineer with a strong background in data management, storage architecture, and hybrid cloud solutions, currently working at NetApp where I focus on the public sector, healthcare, and science verticals.
Throughout my career — spanning roles in IT training at Apple, IT operations project management, and systems engineering — I have consistently acted as the bridge between complex technical architectures and real-world customer needs, translating requirements into scalable solutions across File, Block, S3, and multi-cloud environments.
My expertise encompasses enterprise storage systems (NAS, SAN), networking, IT security, and ransomware protection, complemented by strong skills in technical presales, solution selling, and strategic consulting. I am driven by a philosophy of lifelong learning, a deep passion for technology, and a commitment to delivering measurable value to customers and organizations alike.
