Omschrijving

I help founders and product teams ship serious software, from validating an idea with an MVP to scaling a production-grade SaaS that holds up to real users.

8+ years as a senior full-stack engineer, twice as the first full-time engineer at a startup (B2B SaaS, B2B fintech). I've taken products from 0→1, led architectural overhauls, and stayed through the scale-up phase to teams of 80+. I think in systems, care about code other engineers can read, and translate business problems into technical decisions.

What I usually deliver

- MVPs taken from 0 to 1, ready to be used by your clients

- Refactors and architectural overhauls

- Greenfield Laravel APIs with proper testing, typing, and observability from day one

- Full-stack feature work

Founding engineer at a B2B fintech SaaS, scaling the product from early-stage MVP to large-scale, production-ready platform over 3+ years. Codebase, infrastructure, and engineering culture were largely shaped during this period.
Led a full client-side rewrite from Vue 2 to Vue 3, modernizing ~30 screens with Composition API, Pinia, and TypeScript — eliminating accumulated technical debt from the MVP and setting the foundation for the next stage of growth.
Migrated frontend hosting from Netlify to a Terraform-managed AWS CloudFront setup, introducing infrastructure-as-code and strict GitOps practices that brought version control and reviewability to the previously untracked infrastructure layer.
Contributed across the Laravel backend on feature work, architectural refactors, and reliability improvements.
Operated as a true full-stack engineer with extras. Owning frontend, backend, infrastructure, and DevOps, while contributing on UI/UX decisions and product scoping alongside the founding team.

Founding engineer at a B2B SaaS that grew from 5 to 80+ employees during my 2.5 years. Took the product from MVP to a large-scale, production-ready platform.
Main focus was shipping features, refactors and bugfixes in both the front- and backend projects.
Identified that the backend's growing complexity needed a new architectural foundation. Pitched and shaped a year-long DDD refactor that the team committed to and executed, methodically migrating the codebase to bounded contexts.
Contributed to a full client-side rewrite from Vue 2 to Vue 3 (~30 screens), adopting Composition API, Pinia, and TypeScript to eliminate MVP-era technical debt and modernize the frontend architecture.
Operated as a true full-stack engineer across Laravel and Vue: feature work, refactors, performance fixes, and the architectural conversations that came with rapid team growth.

Started my engineering career at a digital agency, beginning with a 6-month traineeship in modern web development before stepping into shipping production work for early-stage founders.

Owned 2–3 MVPs end-to-end for early-stage founders, working directly with them to translate business problems into shipped products on tight timelines.
Developed deep familiarity with the Laravel ecosystem and learned to talk business with founders and translate it into technical decisions.
