About Jan

I am a Senior Network Architect and Engineer with over 15 years of experience in designing, securing, and migrating mission-critical infrastructures. My background ranges from managing global financial backbones (Swift) to executing large-scale ISP migrations (Telenet Business).

I specialize in high-availability environments where downtime is not an option. Whether acting as a hands-on engineer or a strategic CTO, I help organizations modernize their legacy systems and secure their operational workflows.
