Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolChristiaan Burchell is a Senior Software Developer with 9 years in modern cloud and microservice architectures and a long career history in systems and UI engineering stretching back to the late 1990s. Currently at Thales Digital Identity and Security, he leads team architecture, migrated CI pipelines to GitLab/GCP, and builds C# ASP.NET REST microservices while maintaining Docker-based build images. He has strong backend experience in Go, Node.js, AWS analytics pipelines, and real-time messaging (SMPP, NATS), plus a solid foundation in C++/DirectShow and WPF for mission-critical UIs. Comfortable both on-site and remote, he combines hands-on implementation with tooling and CI automation to improve developer velocity. An unusual strength is his cross-domain background—from MPEG streaming and game networking to identity/security systems—which helps him bridge low-level performance concerns with scalable cloud services.
