As a technical person I love to wonder around through architectural IT landscapes. Searching for the best fit solution for IT challenges that a customer faces. That little bit of extra to accomplish customer satisfaction is what I aim for. A solution that is customer fit and exceeds the customers expactations, while respecting the projected budget, is the perfect way to achieve their goals. My many years of technical experience within enterprise environments and my strong ambitions provide me the potential to realize these goals together with the customer.Learning and gaining experience in a fast and continuous evolving world of IT, is important. The interest in studying and the ability to easily capture and process new information has provided me with new opportunities to grow and evolve from a system engineer to an Enterprise architect.With a background originating as a Wintel engineer (Windows Server, Active Directory, …) I have evolved by expanding that single domain of knowledge to a cross boundary view on the ICT landscape. Ranging from datacenter (Migrations, Consolidations, DRP, HA, ..) and hardware (servers, blades, storage, Exadata, …) projects, over virtualization (VMware, Citrix, Xen, …) to application implementations (SQL, Oracle, GIS, SAP, …)This wide view on technology has provided me new opportunities to expand myself towards the role of enterprise architect. Since 2013 I have been managing larger projects for customers ranging from datacenter migrations over optimization projects to assisting CIO's in their daily IT challenges.

Solution Designer @FluviusCegeka Jul 2021 - PresentAs a Solution designer it is important to analyze both functional (use cases) and non-functional requirements of the customer. You open up the dialogue with Business analysts and architects to verify what options there are to provide a solution within the standards and products available within Fluvius. I take part in the creation of the Project Initiation Document (PID) according to Prince² principles. I create designs that contain both infrastructure, security and service delivery processes and search for possibilities to improve services to the customer. As solution designer you are the main contact for project related questions from both the customer/business as well as the ICT teams and 3rd parties involved.

Technical ArchitectCegeka Jan 2018 - Jul 2021Hasselt, Flemish Region, BelgiumI continued my career for a new customer called Fluvius. The domain that Fluvius is active in is also the Energy market. It's a great new challenge with nice opportunities and a new environment to work in. As Architect my goal is to align business processes with technical opportunities to provide the best possible solution. Translating business requirements into technical solutions is always a challenge and that is what keeps me focused, up-to-date and evolving. It is in my interest to keep my technical skills as wide as possible, integrating with the different engineering teams to discuss at the lower technical level to come up with the correct understanding of the solution. It's also important to expand my horizon and discuss opportunities and requirements at the higher level with business and process teams to be able to translate the technical solution to the market. It's this evolving and interesting area that I love to put my energy and knowledge in together with other motivated team members.Next to the daily operational challenges of a large enterprise organization, we have successfully completed some large projects:- 3PAR storage renewal & data migration- Oracle Exadata setup & DB migration- SAP Hana fault tolerant setup on HPE SD FLex systems & migration- Physical filecluster setup & data migration- SQL Foundation clustered setup- Datacenter migration - ...
