Senior🎓
Top SchoolCaybo Kotzé is a Solutions Architect and full-stack software engineer with nine years of experience designing high-performance web, API and IoT systems, currently consulting at UPS to scale a customs & clearance brokerage product across 30+ countries. He specializes in C# and ASP.NET Core, favors TDD and DDD, and applies patterns like CQRS and Mediator to keep systems testable and maintainable while avoiding unnecessary microservices. Comfortable across architectures from monoliths to microservices, he pairs backend expertise (MySQL/Postgres, Redis, RabbitMQ) with frontend work in Vue.js and TypeScript, and also tinkers with Go for targeted services. A pragmatic technologist who dislikes superfluous complexity (and verbose JavaScript/PHP), he prefers JetBrains tooling and cloud-native Azure deployments. Open to consultation and freelance work, he brings a track record of delivering pragmatic, observable solutions for logistics and IoT domains.
