Vraag vrijblijvend een offerte aan
I’m a Autodidact, analytical, forward-thinking and result-driven technologist with a big passion for new technologies and aversion for repetitive tasks.
I haveover 15 years of Engineering and Architecting experience with scalable H-A (private) cloud solutions like Kubernetes, Rancher, AWS, GCP, VMWare and Openstack and automation tools like Helm, Ansible and monitoring tools like Prometheus and Grafana.
Spreading the DevOps and agile mindset to improve collaboration and the software delivery process is one of my greatest passions.

ASML is the world's leader in the semiconductor (lithography) industry.
As a member of the Container Platform Services team I designed and developed a Rancher based Kubernetes stack that is used to manage the complete lifecycle of Kubernetes clusters. These clusters are used both as shared environments for software developers and as reusable cluster code, where teams can use the code to deploy their own dedicated clusters.

ING delivers financial services world wide with over 50.000 employees.
As part of an SRE squad I worked on creating and implementing error-budgeting as a service. For this service I designed an API using OpenAPI and implemented it using Golang. This API allowed to build Grafana, Prometheus and blackbox-exporter with custom probes in Docker containers with SLA/SLI/SLO configuration generated by the API service and publish them to a Docker registry
In order to support customers with the deployment of Uniface applications in the cloud I designed and built a continuous delivery test framework.
The key feature is the transparent support of multiple cloud providers including Amazon AWS, Microsoft Azure and VMWare Vsphere (on premise) trough a single API.
The framework is triggered automatically for every release cycle of Uniface. It creates and provisions the required infrastructure, deploys and configures the required services to test against, then runs all regression tests, removes the infrastructure and generates reports.
As an operational consultant I help customers design,implement and optimize their (private) cloud strategies using DevOps and Agile methodologies.
