Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJeroen Steggink is an Independent Consultant specializing in Search, AI and Knowledge Management with 25+ years in IT and 18 years building smart search engines using AI/ML and NLP. He helps organisations implement ISO 42001 and practical AI governance, combining hands-on solution architecture (AIOps/MLOps/LLMOps) with policy, risk assessment and compliance. His background spans enterprise search, semantic technologies, taxonomies/ontologies and knowledge graphs, plus applied generative AI and RAG/vector search optimisations. He has advised major Dutch institutions and enterprises—currently supporting ASML and running freelance AI strategy work at knowsy—so he understands the operational challenges of moving from pilots to governed production. An active contributor to open-source search tooling (notably enhancements to the PHP Solr client solarium), he blends deep engineering chops with pragmatic governance. That mix of practitioner experience and standards-focused implementation makes him effective at balancing innovation with responsible AI deployment.
