DevOps & Platform Engineer 📍 Rotterdam, Netherlands
Focused on designing resilient, scalable and developer-friendly infrastructure; with a strong foundation in cloud architecture and SDLC.
I specialize in automation, infrastructure as code and building golden paths for developers that abstract complexity while maintaining flexibility and control.
Currently, I work at MMOX, a cybersecurity company in The Hague, where I lead the design, automation and delivery of infrastructure systems that power secure and scalable services.
I collaborate cross-functionally to reduce developer cognitive load, enable self-service capabilities and establish robust, cloud-native delivery practices.
building scalable cloud platforms powered by Kubernetes and GitOps
using Terraform, Crossplane and ArgoCD to provision and manage multi-cloud environments
integrating synthetic data, observability and self-healing pipelines
designing defense-in-depth strategies with AWS WAF, Cloudflare and automation-driven controls
I write on my blog Backburner Thoughts about complexity, discipline and the creative process behind engineering. These writings help me reflect on how technology shapes human progress — and how engineers can keep evolving beyond the tools they use.
