At KPN, I designed and implemented scalable, fault-tolerant event-driven services using Kafka, built to handle high-availability and high data loads. Developed microservices in Go and Rust, deploying them with Docker and Nix to support modern microservice architectures. In addition to backend engineering, I built robust data platform tooling and CLI utilities that streamlined department workflows, service deployment, and enhanced encryption and PKI management processes.
