Professional Profile
As a reliable, proactive and analytical professional, I draw my energy from adding value within organisations. I am always open to suggestions and feedback and enjoy engaging in substantive conversations. I am comfortable sharing my opinion, but equally able to align with decisions made by others.
Through my goal-oriented approach, I am able to find elegant and effective technical solutions for business challenges. Driven by my desire to be hands-on with projects, I focus on roles as (Lead) Software Engineer or hands-on/coding Solution Architect.
