Omschrijving

I'm a senior software architect with 12+ years of experience, specializing in designing and building complex, business-critical applications in PHP.

Currently I lead a team of 7 developers at a logistics company, where I architected and built a modular monolith handling freight forwarding, CRM, and financial operations across 7 countries.

I focus on clean architecture that scales: Domain-Driven Design, Hexagonal Architecture, CQRS. I work with modern PHP (8.4), Spiral Framework, RoadRunner, Cycle ORM, and real-time systems using Centrifuge.

What I do best:

Architect systems that grow with your business without becoming legacy nightmares

Integrate with complex third-party systems (ERPs, government APIs, real-time data feeds)

Lead and mentor development teams

Modernize and refactor legacy PHP codebases

Regulatory/compliance integrations (tax authorities, government platforms)

Based in the Netherlands. Available for architecture consulting, code reviews, technical leadership, and hands-on development.
