Product-minded data engineer
I work across pipelines, warehouse models, metrics, and reporting. My core work is production data that teams can trust, and I also build AI tools, often coding them in collaboration with AI, to solve real workflow problems faster.
My journalism background still shapes how I work: the system matters, but so does whether people trust the story the data is telling.
Trusted in production
Most of these started from a messy workflow or repeated annoyance. I built them to make something clearer, faster, or easier to use, often with AI as part of the coding process.
Turns messy recruiter email threads into a structured job pipeline. Built with OAuth ingestion, LLM extraction, and SQLite so hiring stages and offer details stop living in inbox chaos.
Transcript-first video editing built on Whisper and FFmpeg. Designed to turn spoken text into a faster editing workflow for rough cuts and cleanup.

Open to
Based in Amsterdam, I’m most interested in data engineering, analytics engineering, and product data roles where data is close to product, finance, and decision-making.
