Despite differences in DOB, a person of the same name with partially matching details is mentionned on these pages:

I don’t believe he was a Kapo in Dachau - that’s what I have:
1932-1934 KPD-Member
1935-1938 Wehrmacht
1938 inmate in KL Dachau
1939 sent to KL Mauthausen
1941 Kapo (Steinbruch) in KL Gusen I
1944 Lagerältester in KL Gusen II
13.12.1945 pardon refused, this is probably not the execution date

According the information of the Mauthausen Memorial he was Lagerältester of Gusen II.

NB: previous linked post included a dead link to Mathausen Memorial website, but the current updated page does not mention any name
