I'm a hands-on technologist and entrepreneur. As a software engineer, I specialize in architecting, implementing and operating cloud-based web applications, especially SaaS platforms and marketplaces in B2B and B2C.
​
My focus is on web technologies, with specialisations in Python, PHP, and JavaScript (Node.js). On the frameworks side, I prefer to work with Laravel, Vue.js and React. I'm also experienced with cloud infrastructures and DevOps (Google Cloud and AWS). More recently, I've been focusing on Artificial Intelligence (Machine Learning, Deep Learning and LLMs) and Data Engineering.
As an entrepreneur, I've validated lots of ideas, and have been involved in building a number of companies. I sold my venture GetYourLawyer to Ringier Axel Springer and bought it back a few years later. Being an entrepreneur is my passion, and I always make time to dedicate towards building businesses. My most recent venture is AureaTauri, an AI-powered quant finance research firm.
Throughout this journey, I've acquired comprehensive knowledge in the areas of strategy, process- and product management, recruiting, digital marketing, cybersecurity, and business intelligence. Last but not least, I specialize in the setup and management of high-performance remote engineering teams.
My industry knowledge focuses on the service industry - in particular legal service providers, personnel service providers, and agencies - as well as the financial, automotive, and media industries and NPOs.

Why Work With Me?
As an entrepreneur, your most valuable resource is often time. There is enough venture capital on the market, employees can be hired and know-how can be acquired. But no one can give you back the time you lose when making the wrong decisions. A bad piece of software architecture, vacant key positions or an unrealistic strategy can set you back years and put the success of your venture at risk. Large corporations work with consulting firms, but startups and scale-ups are often left to their own devices. My service consults with SMEs, helping them to maintain their laser focus and build a sustainable competitive advantage.
