Tobias Sattler

About Me

My name is Tobias, and I was born in 1982 in the lovely city of Munich, Germany.

Since 2008 I have been working for united-domains AG in multiple senior positions, and since 2018 I have been the board member responsible for technology, product development, strategic partnerships, and industry engagement.

The essential part of my role as CTO is to empower and to support my team to build great new products. Along with that it includes to further improve and to transform our technology stack, to streamline our business processes, to develop our IT and product strategy and roadmaps, to engage with our 200+ worldwide partners and suppliers, to represent our interests, to contribute to industry committees to develop best practices, and to represent united-domains at conferences worldwide.

Through the years I managed to establish a broad network and to build up substantial expertise, especially on product and business development. I like to deal with all kind of things, and I am not shy away from getting my own hands dirty.

Apart from that, I was and am an active member of the community:

• Co-Chair, ICANN Contracted Party House (CPH) TechOps Group (since 2017)
• Member, eco Names & Numbers Steering Committee (since 2017)
• Founder & Organizer, Domain-Stammtisch Munich (since 2017)
• Vice-Chair / CTO, ICANN Registry Stakeholder Group (RrSG) (since 2016)
• Founder & Editor in Chief, MyNext.Events (since 2016)
• Ambassador, Universal Acceptance Steering Group (UASG) (2018 - 2019)
• Member, Content Advisory Board of NamesCon and CloudFest (2016 - 2018)
• Volunteer, Mozilla Public Suffix List (2014 - 2016)

Furthermore, I am an author of some IETF Internet-Drafts and a few articles on CircleID, Medium and Linkedin Pulse.

I am a supporting member of Amnesty International, the German Cancer Aid, Caritas, the German Redcross, WWF, and Unicef.

In my spare time, my pleasures include spending time with my family, reading, going for walks, playing games or doing further studies.
