À propos de Joren
I’m a senior software engineer and technical lead with a focus on Node.js, PHP, and cloud infrastructure. Over the past years, I’ve helped companies design and build robust applications—from ERP systems and online 3D visualization platforms to large-scale APIs and integrations.
I’m comfortable taking ownership of the entire process: architecture, database design, automated testing, CI/CD pipelines, and guiding teams through delivery. Whether it’s mentoring developers, coordinating with stakeholders, or getting hands-on with complex codebases, I’m used to bridging the gap between business goals and technical execution.
Key strengths:
Building and scaling backend systems (Node.js, PHP, .NET)
Database design and performance optimization (MySQL, MSSQL)
Cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure)
Feature design and delivery
Coaching teams and leading projects from scratch
Always pragmatic, always focused on creating real value rather than overengineering.
