Skills

I've been working full time as an independent consultant since 2014. Before that, I worked for 6 years in an insurance company as a software developer.
During my years as a software consultant, I have realized that communication with the client is most crucial. That's why I make every effort to understand the requirements of the task that's needed to be done, remove ambiguities, make a thorough analysis, suggest a solution and implement.

My area of expertise is (web) backend & big data development on Google Cloud Platform using Python. 
I've been using Python since 2006 for:
- scripting / automating
- web/backend development
- web scraping 
- data processing / ETL

I've been using Google Cloud since 2012, most of my projects are related to it, namely general architecture, (serverless) web/backend development, DevOps, data engineering, data analysis.
