I am an experienced and creativite IT solutions builder with a business mindset and strong communication skills. Over the past years, I performed in various roles: CTO for start-up/scale-up companies, search technology expert, IT architecture, etc. I enjoy building great software solutions, applying technology in an intelligent way, result focused.Throughout my career, I combined managerial and stategic work with architecture design, functional design and hands on technical work. I like to stay in touch with technology, and it makes me able to understand and guide the technical work at hand. I like diving into new business and new technology. The more the better. One specific area that I love to work in is the area of search technology. For many years, I've been involved in semantic search, natural language processing, etc.IT architecture, team management, managing offshore development teams, infrastructure, devops, are all well known things to me.
