Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolBart Kummel is a seasoned software engineer and team lead with over 20 years in software development and 12 years of formal experience focused on JVM-based back ends in Java, Scala and Kotlin. He progressed from embedded systems to enterprise and microservices architectures, shaping resilient SaaS back ends using Scala/Akka, PostgreSQL and DynamoDB. As a manager and Scrum-oriented leader he has guided product engineering teams, removed impediments, and driven process improvements while resisting rigid, one-size-fits-all frameworks. He also served as a confidential counsellor, bringing a people-first approach to conflict resolution and team well-being. Based in Harderwijk, Netherlands, Bart combines deep technical craftsmanship with a pragmatic, evolving view of agile practices and hands-on mentorship. Notably, his career blends low-level embedded experience with modern cloud-native JVM systems, giving him uncommon breadth across the stack.
