Services
Expertise in three areas
With over 20 years of experience in software engineering and cloud infrastructure, I provide three complementary services that reinforce each other.
Software Engineering
As lead engineer I design and build cloud-native systems that are scalable, maintainable and reliable. My specialisation lies in event-driven architectures and distributed systems — from platform design to concrete implementation.
Years of collaboration with DHL Supply Chain have resulted in multiple successful products on GCP: from parcel platforms and track & trace systems to driver apps and operational planning systems.
- Event-driven architecture with Apache Kafka
- Microservices in Kotlin, Java and TypeScript
- Cloud-native development on GCP and Azure
- CI/CD pipelines and DevOps workflows
- Distributed systems and platform engineering
- Lead engineering and technical leadership
Tech stack
Technical Training
As a Kubestronaut and experienced trainer, I deliver hands-on training across a wide range of modern technologies. All training material is fully self-developed — not off-the-shelf slides, but in-depth content that connects to daily practice.
Regular trainer for several large organisations and training institutes. Recognised as the go-to Kubernetes trainer for Capgemini, with dozens of sessions for engineering teams across the Netherlands.
- Kubernetes (CKA, CKAD, CKS, KCNA/KCSA) — as Kubestronaut
- React Development — modern frontend with hooks and TypeScript
- Apache Spark — big data processing and streaming
- Scala — functional programming and distributed systems
- Angular — enterprise frontend development
- Fully self-developed material, hands-on labs
- Tailored for teams and individuals

Cloud & Platform Consultancy
Strategic advice and hands-on implementation for cloud platform engineering. From architecture design to full deployment of Kubernetes clusters on GCP or Azure — with security, observability and GitOps built in.
Practical experience gained in large enterprise environments such as DHL, where cloud infrastructure was directly linked to business-critical products.
- GCP and Azure cloud architecture strategy
- Infrastructure as Code with Terraform
- Kubernetes platform setup with Helm
- GitOps with FluxCD and ArgoCD
- Observability with ELK Stack and Datadog
- Security hardening and compliance
