Summary
Jochen Stals is a Senior Business Analyst and Information Architect based in Lede, Belgium, with 15 years of experience translating complex technical requirements into practical solutions. He combines deep hands-on development roots—especially in Drupal, PHP, MySQL, JavaScript and front-end theming—with a strategic business analysis practice developed across agencies and consultancy roles. As Director of Menhir he continues to contribute to open-source projects while leading delivery and architecture work at Agile Architects. Jochen’s background as a developer and former scrummaster gives him rare empathy for engineering constraints when shaping product and information architectures. He is comfortable bridging stakeholder needs and technical teams to deliver usable, maintainable systems. An uncommonly scientific early education in laboratory techniques and chemistry informs his methodical, evidence-driven approach to requirements and information design.
