Business-minded engineering approach backed by certifications in cloud, AI, data, product ownership and agile delivery.
Fast to understand.
Faster to deliver.
I turn business ideas into software that creates measurable impact. From strategy and architecture to development and delivery, I help companies build products that solve real problems, scale with confidence, and move faster. With expertise across cloud, backend, frontend, architecture and agile product management, I connect business ambition with technical execution.

I’ll evaluate the use cases, data availability, and expected ROI. From there, we can identify quick wins and design an AI solution that integrates cleanly with your existing architecture.

If you have one I haven’t covered, just send me an email.
Can you help with AI projects?
Yes. From AI-powered features and integrations to proof-of-concepts and architecture decisions, I can help translate AI opportunities into practical solutions.
Do you only write code?
No. I also contribute to architecture, technical strategy, product discussions, backlog refinement and stakeholder communication.
What do you do outside of software development?
I volunteer as a First Aid Responder for the Dutch Red Cross. It reminds me that some incidents are more important than failed deployments.
What's the connection between your volunteering work and software engineering?
Both involve assessing situations quickly, identifying root causes, following procedures and staying calm when others aren’t.
What's your preferred way of working?
Close collaboration, clear communication, pragmatic decisions and delivering value early and often.
Can you explain technical topics to non-technical stakeholders?
Absolutely. A large part of engineering is translating complexity into understandable business decisions.
What's your availability and rate?
Availability depends on current commitments, and rates depend on scope, duration and what the work actually involves.
