I’m Malte Buttjer, an entrepreneur with 20+ years of experience in tech and business. I founded, raised significant funding for, sold and closed companies, served as Managing Director and CTO. I led product development, defined tech stacks, built software teams, created brands, visual and software assets, and managed core operations.
Hands-on leadership with one standard: create the conditions for teams to work effectively and reach their full potential.
Currently building automation-first ventures: Cardmuseum and Shield N Show run with zero employees on 52 n8n workflows with LLM orchestration. And I’m open to the right challenge.

Lumi Fave — Cardmuseum & Shield N Show
Two complementary automation-first businesses: Cardmuseum, a revenue-generating e-commerce operation, and Shield N Show, a long-term B2B product brand. They run with zero employees on 52 n8n workflows with LLM orchestration and custom integrations across marketplace and ERP systems; running them takes about two days a week, almost none of it operations.

A chat list is not a cockpitWhat I built around CloudCLI to run dozens of agent sessions from a phone
Running many coding agents in parallel is not limited by the agents but by the one person steering them. How I rebuilt the interface around that: topics instead of projects, one colour that means 'you', and a panel that lets a session be steered without reading it.

The image pipeline: Source, Design, Translate, Compose, Review, PublishMy method, my stack and a plan you can hand to a coding agent
Producing product imagery at catalogue scale, in three parts: the six-stage method and the invariants that make a run repeatable, the concrete stack I would choose again with the price of each choice, and a fill-in-the-blanks build plan written for a coding agent.

Free your Code nodesA guard proxy for AI agents editing n8n workflows: Code node source lives in git, one write is blocked
n8n Code node source is a string in a JSON blob: no diff, no types, no review. n8n-decanter moves the source into git and guards the one MCP write that would bypass it.

Closing the loopsAutomating a business, eight months in: methodology and first numbers
One event queue, three closed loops, and humans reduced to approve/deny. Sixteen hours a week, still four times away from the four-hour workweek.
