One engineer. Whole product. I build AI systems that ship โ RAG pipelines, LLM agents and chatbots on OpenAI, Anthropic Claude and AWS Bedrock โ plus full-stack SaaS in Next.js, Python and NestJS. From the AI strategy call to the running system in production.
I'm a senior full-stack engineer with a decade of shipping behind me, and over the last few years, AI integration has become the part of the work I'm most useful at. Not as a prompt engineer or a deck-and-disappear consultant, but as the person who sits in a discovery call, understands your product and workflows, identifies where a model, an embedding store or an agent actually moves the needle, and then builds it. Same pair of hands, all the way through.
That's the part most teams are missing right now. AI consultants who can't ship. Engineers who can ship but can't tell you whether the LLM is the right answer in the first place. I do both, and the value is in not splitting them apart.
How engagements usually start
Most projects start with a call. You tell me what you're trying to build or where you're stuck, I ask questions, and we figure out together whether AI is actually the right answer, and if so, what the smallest useful first step looks like. Sometimes that's a one-page plan and an estimate. Sometimes it's a longer paid discovery if the product is complex enough to warrant it. Either way, I'll tell you honestly when an LLM is the wrong answer. That's part of the value of talking to someone who builds these systems, not just advises on them.
What I build
โ AI & LLM integration ยท OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Vertex AI, AWS Bedrock, LangChain, LangGraph. RAG systems, chatbots, agentic workflows, prompt and eval pipelines, embeddings, vector stores. Production-grade, not demos.
โ Frontend ยท React, Next.js, Angular, TypeScript. Component-driven UIs, accessibility, performance, built to stay fast at year three.
โ Backend ยท NestJS, Express, Python (FastAPI / Django). REST and GraphQL APIs, event-driven systems, queues, background workers.
โ Data ยท PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, vector databases. Schema design, indexing, query plans, the unglamorous parts that decide whether the app holds up under real load.
โ Cloud & DevOps ยท Azure, AWS, GCP. Kubernetes, serverless, Terraform / Bicep, CI/CD on Azure DevOps and GitHub Actions. Zero-downtime deploys.
โ Integrations ยท Stripe, Firebase Auth, Azure AD B2C, messaging, analytics, wired in cleanly, failure paths covered.
How I work
Direct, written-first, async-friendly across timezones. Long-running, end-to-end engagements are where I do my best work. I plug in, learn the product, and keep it moving. I take on unfamiliar stacks and domains on purpose. That's usually the part I want.
If you've got something ambitious, an AI feature you're not sure how to scope, a product that needs to ship with AI baked in from day one, or a vague idea you need someone to think through honestly before writing any code, let's talk.

I'm a full stack developer who builds AI SaaS platforms, and I take over scaling codebases when real user traffic starts breaking them. 10+ shipped in the last year, mostly Next.js and React on the front, Node or Python behind that, Postgres and Supabase underneath, Stripe wherever there's billing, and OpenAI, Claude or OpenRouter wherever the AI earns its place, usually RAG over the customer's own data.

If there's code I'll go through what breaks first under real users, then what I'd fix before launch and which bits I'd leave alone, and if there isn't yet I'll walk through how I'd build it. Free either way, and there's no pitch at the end of it.
Full Stack Developer | AI SaaS | Multi-Tenant SaaS | Next.js | React | React Native | TypeScript | Node.js | Python | Supabase | PostgreSQL | Stripe Billing | AI Integration | RAG & Document Processing | MCP Servers | API Integration | Prototype to Production | Replit | Lovable | v0 | Bubble | Code Audit & Takeover
WHAT I FIND WHEN I TAKE OVER A CODEBASE:
Row-level security switched on and doing nothing, because every read goes around it. A payment that goes through while the write after it fails, so the customer stays on the free plan and nobody finds out until they email you. A sync running on a timer that everyone on the team believes is event-driven.
None of it shows up in a demo. All of it shows up around week three.
Coming off a v0 or Lovable prototype, the rebuild is usually the data model and the tenant boundary, not the screens.
WHAT I BUILD AS A FULL STACK DEVELOPER:
โข AI SaaS platforms. Retrieval over your own data, document processing, scoped agents with guardrails, and the evals that tell you when they've stopped working
โข Prototype to production. Replit, Lovable, v0 and Bubble builds rebuilt to survive real customers
โข Multi-tenant foundations. Org boundaries, roles and permissions, row-level security that still holds when someone queries around it
โข Billing and payments. Stripe subscriptions, marketplace money in and payouts back out
โข Integrations. Shopify, PayPal, Klarna, Gmail, Microsoft Graph, and the webhook handling that keeps them honest
โข Native mobile. iOS and Android on the same typed backend as the web, so the three surfaces never drift apart
โข Code audit and takeover. Inherited codebases, developers who've gone quiet, launch hardening
๐ฅ๐๐๐๐ก๐ง ๐๐จ๐๐๐๐ฆ:
โข ๐ ๐ผ๐ป๐ฒ๐๐น๐ถ๐ป๐ฒ. Document intelligence for financial documents. 180+ API endpoints, 50+ document types, multi-tenant runtime, a visual workflow builder of 20+ node types, and an MCP server exposing every node as an agent-callable tool.
โข ๐๐ป๐๐๐๐ฒ. Multi-tenant operations platform. Shopify, PayPal, Klarna, Gmail and Microsoft Graph wired in, realtime sync over WebSockets with no third-party realtime vendor, AI handling first-line support tickets.
โข ๐ฆ๐ฝ๐ผ๐๐ ๐ฒ. Consumer fintech shipped as native iOS, native Android and web on one typed backend.
โข ๐ช๐ถ๐ป๐ณ๐ผ๐น๐ฑ. Real-time auction marketplace. WebSocket bid engine, Stripe credit purchases and seller payouts.
โข ๐ฅ๐๐ป๐ง๐ต๐ฒ๐๐ด๐ฒ๐ป๐. Managed AI agent hosting with WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord and Slack connectors, and per-account isolation.
๐ช๐๐๐ฅ๐ ๐'๐ฉ๐ ๐ฆ๐๐๐ฃ๐ฃ๐๐:

I work with people anywhere and I'm relaxed about timezones, happy to take calls early or late to line up with wherever you are. Native English and Dutch, and available full time right now.
If you want a full stack developer who'll own the whole thing rather than close tickets, send me your repo, your URL, or just the idea. Loom back within 48 hours.

I build agentic systems that survive production - not demos.
Currently CTO at Kruso Netherlands, and hands-on throughout. Seventeen years in software, ten of them backend and Python, the last two spent entirely on LLM and agent systems that real businesses depend on.
What I actually do:
- Agent harnesses and multi-step orchestration: tool calling, streaming, error recovery, checkpointing, resumability
- Context and memory engineering: retrieval, compaction, short and long-term memory, latency and cost budgets
- RAG and GraphRAG over messy enterprise data, with Neo4j and vector databases where a graph earns its place
- Evaluation as a first-class discipline: golden datasets, LLM-as-judge, regression tracking, turning production failures into fixes
- Guardrails, human-in-the-loop controls, permissions and audit trails for agents that touch real systems
- MCP servers and tool registries, so your capabilities are usable by agents rather than only by humans
Stack: Python, TypeScript/Node.js, LangChain, LangGraph, OpenAI and Anthropic APIs, MCP, Neo4j, PostgreSQL, Redis, Kubernetes, Terraform, Docker, Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, GCP and Azure.
How I work: understand the workflow before proposing architecture, ship something running early, instrument it, then harden. I document what I build and hand it over so your team can own it.
Best fit: teams putting agents into production for the first time, or teams whose agent works in the demo and falls over under real traffic. If that is you, tell me the workflow and the constraints and I will come back with a scoped plan.
