Owner at Turing Technology Services

I’m a hands-on technology architect, engineer and founder of Turing Technology Services, with nearly two decades of experience in software engineering, platform engineering, site reliability engineering and cloud infrastructure. My work combines architecture and implementation with technical leadership, coaching and helping organisations adopt new engineering practices. I’ve worked with organisations including Shell, ING, ABN AMRO, Rabobank, Schiphol Group and Ahold Delhaize, across complex and regulated enterprise environments. On this blog, I share practical guides and perspectives on software architecture, cloud platforms, reliability and AI, explaining the reasoning behind technical choices as well as how to implement them.
