About

I build software that ships.

I'm Asiel, a full-stack engineer based in the Netherlands. By day I work as an Operations Engineer at a power trading platform; outside of that I build software across the entire stack — from database schema to deployment pipeline. Currently studying ICT at Inholland with a focus on shipping things that actually work in production.

Philosophy

How I work

Ship with confidence

Code that isn't in production isn't solving problems. I bias toward shipping and iterating.

Depth over breadth

I'd rather understand a system deeply than touch everything superficially.

Design matters

Good software is also well-designed software. The interface is part of the product.

Own the full stack

From the database schema to the deployment pipeline — I care about every layer.

Education & experience

Etpa - A new way of power trading

Operations Engineer & Incident Manager

Etpa - A new way of power trading

March 2026 — Present

Own incident response end-to-end for a real-time power-trading platform, coordinating triage, resolution and communication to minimise downtime during live market hours. Maintain monitoring and alerting across services, reducing noise and surfacing issues before they reach traders. Automated manual operational tasks using different technology frameworks saving a lot of manual effort. Act as the bridge between operations and engineering, feeding incident root causes back into the development backlog so they get fixed, not just patched.
