• Enterprise WMS customisation for Albert Heijn and EDEKA.
• Owned end-to-end test planning, automation, and performance validation for logistics automation software serving high-volume grocery warehouse operations.

• Delivered MVP-focused full-stack architecture for a health-sector client: Vite/React frontend, backend services on Google Cloud Run, and Supabase for database plus IAM/authentication.
• Supported product requirements engineering and prioritized cost-aware workload placement, implementing browser-side/edge computation where feasible before moving logic to backend services.

• Complete greenfield rebuild across the whole stack — built AI-native: backend in Go and NestJS, PostgreSQL (CNPG) on K3s with GitOps/Terraform; frontend on Angular 22, zoneless.
• Orchestrated coding agents (e.g. Claude Code, Cursor) across the entire lifecycle — architecture, implementation, testing, reviews, documentation — driven by Specification-Driven Development (SDD).
• “Bruno” — LLM commentator persona backed by RAG and MCP for a personality that stays consistent across all generations (match previews, post-match reports, his own virtual bets).
