Sebastian Zielis

Sebastian Zielis is the Chief Technology Officer of Shoreline Vehicle Design Group, bringing a sharp strategic mind and deep technical expertise to the business. His role spans technology direction, operational oversight, and the systems that underpin every build Shoreline delivers.

A business leader, advisor, and entrepreneur with a background across academia, global consulting, and technology, Sebastian grew up in Germany with dual German-Swiss nationality and completed a PhD before spending many years as a management and strategy consultant across the globe. He later joined SoftwareONE as part of the extended global leadership team, where he developed a deep passion for technology companies and the teams that run them.

As COO of Senttr and a strategic advisor at Fitzgerald Capital Group level, Sebastian is hands-on across a wide breadth of business functions, spanning product and pre-sales through to core operations, due diligence, acquisitions, and investments.

Based in Zurich, Sebastian is passionate about sports, is a musician in a band that his schedule rarely lets him see, and spends perhaps too much time thinking about the perfect three-car garage.
