About

Title: CIO & Chief AI Officer

Sebastian Sussmann is an agile practitioner, technology leader, and trainer with 16+ years building and coaching software teams across Vietnam and Europe — in every Scrum role, from developer to Scrum Master, Product Owner, and CIO. As CIO and Chief AI Officer at Axon Active, a Swiss-owned, ISO 27001-certified software engineering company serving clients worldwide, he runs distributed delivery teams and leads the company's shift into AI-augmented engineering.

A Scrum Ambassador and Scrum Ambassadors Licensed Trainer (SA-LT), Sebastian pairs deep agile experience with hands-on AI governance work — responsible-use frameworks, AI skills assessments, and EU AI Act-aligned engineering practices now running across 650+ engineers, with supporting expertise in GHG/ESG supply-chain reporting.

He co-founded Scrum Breakfast Da Nang & Ho Chi Minh City, one of Vietnam's largest agile communities, coaches agile at universities across Vietnam and Europe, and is a regular conference speaker — most recently a 2026 keynote on how AI is reshaping engineering teams. He is also a member of the Agile Executives.
