About Me
Master's degree in Computer Science with 10+ years of professional background specializing in high-scale backend systems engineering, polyglot development, and distributed architectures.
I land in complex corporate or legacy environments as an independent fixer—rapidly isolating technical debt, designing secure system boundaries, and enforcing strict engineering guardrails. I treat infrastructure as a software blueprinting problem to provision high-velocity pipelines that scale with zero external bloat.
Core Systems Mastery
- Polyglot Backend Engines: Advanced, hands-on execution across Python (FastAPI, Flask, Pylons), C# (.NET Core, WPF, Akka.net), and Go
- Systems Architecture: Microservices, gRPC, REST APIs, Event-Driven Architectures, and high-throughput transaction pipelines
- Cloud Infrastructure (IaC): AWS (ECS/Fargate, Lambda, SNS, CloudFormation), Azure (Bicep, VNets, App Services), Docker, and automated CI/CD
Legacy Modernization & Refactoring
- Database Decoupling: Extracting complex business logic from fragile SQL stored procedures into maintainable Entity Framework handlers in the application layer
- Legacy Overhauls: Deprecating problematic legacy frameworks (e.g., migrating core logic from obsolete VB.NET apps to modern C#/WPF implementations)
- Ecosystem Standardization: Resolving fragmented macro/template environments by introducing formal code structures, strict versioning, and predictable developer patterns
Deep Identity & Security Integration
Heavyweight experience hardening distributed networks, establishing secure API data proxies, and architecting identity boundaries. Proficient in JWT / Token-Based Auth, Windows Authentication, and enterprise identity providers (Okta, Google Auth).
Cross-Functional Systems Awareness
- Code Stabilization: Auditing, documenting, and encapsulating legacy or external contractor code to establish rigid future development guardrails
- Frontend Integration: Functional structural proficiency in TypeScript and React to guarantee seamless client-server API contract integration without owning UI delivery
Available for high-velocity Freelance, ZZP, and Interim Contract engagements across the Netherlands.
