Senior full-stack .NET developer and architect who modernizes microservices and delivers end-to-end business value.
What I'm looking for
I’m an ambitious architect and full-stack developer, self-taught with a background in finance and a passion for technology. I’m driven by the First Time Right principle, aiming to help Dutch organizations succeed by delivering reliable, end-to-end solutions.
Over 17 years, I’ve worked across the full lifecycle—planning, architecture, implementation, testing, and management—while supporting complex applications and improving business processes through Agile development. I’m known for maintaining and evolving systems, designing new product features, and strengthening delivery through effective project management.
In recent roles, I’ve upgraded and modernized microservices and build/release pipelines, refactoring for breaking changes, expanding automated tests, and advancing front ends (Angular/React). I’ve also led migrations and transformations—rewriting desktop (WPF) to web, moving version control workflows, and integrating services using REST, gRPC, CQRS, SignalR, and Azure components.
What matters to me is impact and craftsmanship: coaching teams, improving professional capabilities, and ensuring solutions are robust in real-world environments. I combine deep .NET expertise with broad technical reach to build systems that perform, scale, and remain maintainable.
