Hire the Best DevOps Engineers
in the Netherlands

I help ambitious teams build, scale, and secure AI-powered platforms—from Claude API integrations to enterprise automation to Kubernetes infrastructure. What I do: ✓ AI Integration & Implementation: Deploy Claude APIs (multi-turn assistants, RAG, batch processing), OpenAI, and custom LLM workflows. Handle token optimization, vector DBs, context windows at scale. ✓ Intelligent Automation: N8N/Make workflows, Python agents, API orchestration, decision trees. I turn manual processes into AI-powered systems (e.g., PR review automation → 60% faster reviews). ✓ Enterprise DevOps & Cloud Platforms: Kubernetes (AKS/EKS), Workload Identity, GitOps (ArgoCD), Terraform. Pod Security Standards, secret management, JSOX-compliant architectures. ✓ Observability & Security: OpenTelemetry zero-code instrumentation, Dynatrace, compliance automation, infrastructure hardening. ✔ AI Coaching & Advisory: Guide leadership teams through AI adoption—roadmaps, vendor/tool evaluation, and hands-on workshops that turn non-technical stakeholders into confident decision-makers. Recent Outcomes: • Deployed OpenTelemetry across 7 .NET services → 40% faster incident resolution • Built Claude-powered PR review system → 60% reduction in manual review time • Implemented Workload Identity (12 services) → Zero shared secrets, audit-ready • Created Kubernetes debugging pipeline → Sub-minute diagnostics I work best on: • 6+ month contracts (embedded on your team) • AI/ML startups scaling production systems • Enterprise tech modernizing legacy workflows • Scale-ups automating manual processes Based in Netherlands.

If you need someone who can work across frontend, backend, database, infrastructure, and business logic, I can help you design and build the full system.

I secure, containerise and run the platforms I build. 25 years in PHP and Python, with Kubernetes (CKA), Azure (AZ-104), AWS and OWASP security work on top. I own the whole path: application code, the cluster it runs on, and the security posture around it. Most teams hire a developer, then discover six weeks later they need a DevOps engineer, and six months after that that nobody owns security. I do all three, which removes the handover gaps where things actually break. SECURITY - Web application security audits against the OWASP Top 10 - Automated vulnerability scanning: SQL injection, XSS, CSRF, insecure deserialization, security misconfiguration - STRIDE threat modelling, OAuth2 / OpenID Connect, secure API design - I built and run ShieldIndex, an AI-driven OWASP scanner with a rebuilt PentestGPT fork as its analysis engine CLOUD & INFRASTRUCTURE - Kubernetes (Certified Kubernetes Administrator), Docker, Terraform, Ansible - Azure (Certified Azure Administrator Associate) and AWS: migrations, App Services, AKS, Beanstalk, Lambda - CI/CD pipelines in GitHub Actions and Azure DevOps - On-premise to cloud migrations, production monitoring, incident and change management - Linux administration (LFCS certified) AI INTEGRATION - LLM and image-generation APIs integrated into production systems - The unglamorous part done properly: queueing, cost control, retry logic, failure handling - ProfileHero, my AI headshot platform on Laravel, React and AWS, is live and paying for its own infrastructure APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT - PHP 8: Symfony, Laravel, Lumen, Zend — 25 years, Zend Certified Engineer - Python: Django, Flask, automation and AI tooling (PCAP certified) - Legacy modernisation: Zend 1 to Symfony, on-premise to Azure, without a rewrite and without downtime - High-concurrency systems, REST APIs, Elasticsearch, high-traffic platforms WHERE I'M MOST USEFUL Take over a system nobody fully understands anymore and make it secure, deployable and maintainable again. That is the work I am best at and the work most people avoid.
