Gijs Leussink is a Senior Software Engineer with over a decade of experience building resilient backend systems and CI/CD platforms across domains like banking, airports, and mobility. He specializes in Java and adjacent JVM languages (Groovy, Kotlin) and frameworks such as Spring, Micronaut, Hibernate and Gradle, often pairing pragmatic design patterns with disciplined refactoring. Gijs has repeatedly improved delivery pipelines and observability—cutting release times from days to under an hour and migrating legacy platforms to containerized microservices on OpenShift. He has hands-on experience designing high-traffic APIs and CIAM solutions that handle millions of calls and thousands of daily sessions, and enjoys translating complex business rules into clean, testable code. Based in Breda, he combines a systems-engineering background with agile coaching, proof-of-concept work, and a preference for working in enhanced terminals and IntelliJ for productive development.
