Our Management Team

Milecrew

Milecrew was founded in 2022 by Roland and Felix. Sebastian and Erwin have been part of the crew since the very beginning and form our management team, which jointly oversees our projects.

Our crew consists of 12 core members, who are complemented by 10 to 20 other top partners and freelancers from all over Germany and Europe. Each of our IT experts has many years of practical professional experience and contributes to the success of Milecrew with different skills and their own personality. Depending on the project, we put together a crew tailored to you.

We are based in Cologne and work primarily remotely throughout Germany. A proven international network supports us when needed.
