Top SchoolBart Kleijngeld is a Data Architect with 11 years of hands-on software engineering experience who helps organizations make their data findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable by applying Semantic Web technologies and Data Mesh principles. At Alliander he bridges business and engineering to design decentralized data products, build SHACL-based logical models, and generate technical schemas via his Metamorph project (written in Clojure). Comfortable across the stack—from TensorFlow model APIs and Kubernetes to test automation and ETL—he focuses on eliminating silos, formalizing semantics for machine consumption, and enabling knowledge graphs to boost AI. A longtime contributor to open-source back-end tooling (including enhancements to the beets music manager), he combines rigorous mathematical training with a pragmatic engineering mindset to turn complex metadata problems into automatable, reusable solutions.
