Description

I'm a Freelance Full Stack Developer based in Belgium, specializing in Angular and Java, with strong DevOps expertise across the full delivery chain — from frontend architecture to CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure management.

With 6+ years of experience working on complex, large-scale applications, I've progressively taken on more responsibility beyond pure development. I currently act as Frontend Lead within my team at Infrabel, where I drive technical decisions, mentor junior developers, and facilitate weekly knowledge-sharing sessions. I genuinely enjoy that side of the job — helping teammates grow and raising the technical bar across the team.

I hold certifications in AWS Cloud Practitioner, PSM I and Oracle Java, and I'm currently studying for the AWS AI Practitioner. Continuous learning is something I take seriously — whether through certifications, online courses or simply staying hands-on with the latest Angular and Spring Boot evolutions.

Through my company Kornerstone, I've been operating as a freelance developer since 2018, working on long-term missions embedded within client teams. I'm always open to discussing interesting new opportunities.
