I am a senior Microsoft backend and cloud developer, U.S. citizen, and native English speaker living in the Netherlands and working as a freelancer for enterprise clients across the U.S. and Europe. My working day overlaps with U.S. east coast time from 7am to 2pm, with flexibility to adjust when needed.
I specialize in Azure-based platforms, cloud migrations, backend API development, and DevOps automation, working hands-on daily in C#, .NET, and SQL.
I am an expert with C#/.NET, ASP.NET (24+ years), SQL Server (28+ years), Azure (15+ years), and Azure DevOps (6+ years), and I frequently step into a tech lead role to help teams improve delivery, architecture, and platform stability, without stepping away from the code.
With 30+ years of experience, including 25+ years in consulting and 20+ years leading development teams, I have delivered enterprise systems for the U.S. Air Force, AT&T, Kaiser Permanente, Dell, Rabobank, 3M, and more, in environments with high expectations around reliability, security, and pace of change.
Recent work highlights include:
Beyond technical work, I bring real leadership and business experience. I co-founded Volare Software 17 years ago and continue to lead it today, generating $8.5M in consulting revenue across 33 clients who have retained me multiple years and across multiple projects to stabilize, extend, and modernize their core platforms.
I am currently seeking a 6-12+ month assignment as a senior developer or tech lead who codes most of the time.
I would be happy to discuss how I could contribute to your team. Please get in touch!
