I’m a software engineer based in the Netherlands. I mostly work on backend and distributed systems, and I’ve spent time as both an individual contributor and an engineering manager. I like practical solutions, small steps, and software that is easy to run.

Snapshot

Building for 10+ years

Since 2012, I’ve built software for startups and larger product companies, from client websites and mobile apps to backend platforms for payments, logistics, and lending.

Domains in action

My work has covered ride-sharing, logistics, delivery planning, subscriptions, billing, and merchant lending.

Architecture in practice

I’ve used domain-driven design, event-driven architecture, and hexagonal architecture across microservices and modular monoliths.

Technical leadership

I’ve led initiatives around observability, domain boundaries, and platform engineering.

IC and/or Management

I’ve led a subscription management team and an entire internal tools branch, working in both hands-on engineering and management roles.
