I'm honestly grateful 🙏🏿 that you take some of your valuable time to visit my profile - thank you!tl;dr - I'm working as a senior architect with hands-on developer experience, specialising in blockchain technology, leveraging my prior professional career, working on cloud and mobile stacks, mainly JEE and iOS Swift, and a good amount of DevOps tinkering. Techie 🤓 by 💚I fundamentally believe in applying technology to doing good and solving tough engineering problems.I fell down the blockchain rabbit hole in 2015 🐇🕳, both from a personal and professional perspective. I'm very open-minded and practical when it comes to the underpinning technology: "Let us use the tools that are best suited to solve a challenging pain point". I spread the word via speaking engagements at conferences, universities and public meetups, in addition to being always on the edge of educating myself on the impacts on our society and the way we interact with technology in future.Besides my deep technical skills, I'm well known for playing a leading technical role, putting my team first, communicating and negotiating with clients and just being there to listen and to act as a focal point for thought leadership.I honestly thrive being of service, supporting clients wherever I can, and giving back to the next generation: that is why I lecture part-time at my former university on top of my main job at IBM.
