I'm a Platform & CI/CD engineer with 15+ years of experience designing CI/CD pipelines, automation frameworks, and infrastructure that teams actually enjoy working with.

I'm a Platform & CI/CD Engineer based in Antwerp, Belgium. My day-to-day is spent designing the kind of infrastructure and tooling that lets development teams focus on shipping — not fighting their pipelines.
I've spent years working in the automation and IaC space — Ansible, Puppet, Terraform — and I genuinely enjoy the craft of it: the architecture decisions, the automation that quietly saves everyone hours, and the occasional debugging session at an unreasonable hour. Linux is where I'm most at home.
Outside of work, I'm into filmmaking — there's something satisfying about storytelling through a lens that scratches a completely different part of the brain than infrastructure does. I also shoot archery (patience and precision — not entirely unlike debugging), and I spend more time than I'd admit building Lego sets.
