Heemskerk, North Holland, Netherlands
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolBert Hekman is a pragmatic software developer with 17 years of experience building and operating high-traffic web platforms and backend systems. He currently architects and maintains services at PB Web Media, supporting sites that handle millions of daily visitors using Go, PHP, Docker, Kafka, Elasticsearch and other scalable tooling. Equally comfortable in code and ops, he pairs system administration expertise (Linux, Nginx, Postfix, DNS) with modern infrastructure automation (Ansible, Docker) to keep services simple and predictable. His background includes freelance work and long-term roles where he built monitoring, intranet and content systems end-to-end, reflecting a full-stack, production-first mindset. A certified Scrum Master who started programming at age ten, he brings steady discipline and a musician’s collaborative sensibility—he plays bass and guitar in his spare time. Not obvious from his title: he’s as much a systems engineer as a developer, routinely owning deployment, observability and performance tuning for large-scale sites.
