SeniorSoftwareArchitect

I architect high-transaction payment platforms where correctness isn't negotiable. Over 7+ years across the Netherlands, Germany, and the US, I've grown from shipping features to owning architecture - most recently designing and leading a team's rebuild of a legacy payments system into a modern, type-safe, modular platform. Open to senior and architect roles, remote.

What I bring

Built for scale, correctness, and speed

I own outcomes, not tickets - from the data model and the ADRs to production and the people shipping it.

Architecture that holds up

I design the module boundaries and data models for systems where a bug costs real money - and capture the "why" in ADRs so decisions survive turnover. Currently consolidating four legacy codebases into one modular platform.

Frontends built to scale

Rebuilding a legacy AngularJS portal as a modern Nuxt 4 + Vuetify SPA - layered architecture, server-side pagination, i18n, document export, database-driven ACL - in strict TypeScript, end to end.

Teams that ship faster

Generated type-safe API clients, CI gates with PHPStan, Psalm, and custom architecture rules, and one-command reproducible environments. I build the tooling and standards that compound across a team.

Experience

Where I've delivered

From individual contributor to designing the architecture behind payments and e-commerce platforms - for companies in the Netherlands, Germany, and the US.
