Training and booking automation
Automated training courses, bookings and payments. Built API endpoints that route requests through AFAS so managers can approve them.
I build backends that stay up and interfaces people enjoy using.
Senior software engineer with 15 years across PHP, Python, TypeScript and plain, well-structured HTML. I take products from first prototype to systems that carry real traffic.
About
Pragmatic engineer, careful reviewer, patient mentor.
I like software that is boring in production: clear boundaries, good tests, useful logs. Most of my work is on web platforms where PHP services, Python data jobs and TypeScript front ends have to cooperate.
I lead technical design, review code, and help teams ship smaller changes more often. I write down decisions so the next person knows why.
