Open to Strategic Leadership Roles

Software Architect & Engineering Leader

Over 25 years of experience orchestrating complex backend platforms and enterprise security. Based in Gemonde, Netherlands.

From Hands-On Coder to Strategic Visionary

With over two decades in the industry, I have evolved from a deep-technical backend engineer to a Software Architect capable of guiding entire organizations.

My expertise lies in system ownership, technical strategy, and enterprise security (ISO-27001). I specialize in translating intricate business requirements into scalable architectural roadmaps.

My Next Chapter

I am targeting a Strategic Architect role centered on architectural vision, governance, and organizational leadership rather than hands-on development. I thrive where I can empower teams and define the technical horizon.
