## Hi, I'm **Max Mehl**.
|
|
|
|
Open Source is more than just code to me. I deeply care about its principles of collaboration, transparency, and pragmatic problem-solving.
|
|
|
|
I work at **Deutsche Bahn**'s virtual Open Source Program Office (OSPO). I helped co-found the **OpenRail Association** to foster sector-wide collaboration. Another focus is on **software supply chain management** with an emphasis on SBOMs and CRA compliance.
|
|
|
|
Previously, I was with the **Free Software Foundation Europe** (FSFE), leading policy, public awareness, and legal initiatives such as *Public Money, Public Code* and *REUSE*. Before that, I founded a small, client-focused IT consultancy firm offering website development and system administration.

|
|
Outside of work, I enjoy being with my family, bouldering, and maintaining some software projects.
