What can I do for you?
Solving IT challenges for small-to-medium businesses, non-profits and the public sector:
Platform Engineering
I build and manage the automated systems (like CI/CD pipelines and Kubernetes) that allow your software to run smoothly and reliably.
Cloud Architecture
I design secure, scalable, and cost-effective cloud solutions tailored to your needs, ensuring your infrastructure is robust and future-proof.
Backend Development
I develop the server-side logic and APIs for your applications, including modernizing existing systems and creating efficient Kubernetes-native services.
Solutions Architecture & Guidance
I help define your project requirements, guide development using agile methodologies, and ensure continuous product improvement through discovery practices.
My Specializations
While I consider myself a generalist, I can provide the most value to you when it comes to the following areas:
Open Source Migration
I replace your proprietary services like MS Teams or Google Workspaces with robust Open Source alternatives.
EU Cloud Sovereignty
I migrate your current infrastructure from platforms like Azure to EU-sovereign cloud solutions.
Rust Microservices
I develop reliable, reusable, and extensible microservices following 12-factor principles. I can pick up any programming language, but Rust is where I shine.
Upcoming Events
I regularly attend Open Source conferences in the region. Hit me up if you’re attending any of these gatherings!
