Summary
Lennard Westerveld is a Solution Architect and entrepreneur with 11 years of experience designing and building cloud-native, scalable platforms—currently shaping platform strategy at Sanoma Learning while running his own consultancy KrachtOnline. He blends hands-on software development, platform engineering and architecture with a strong focus on Azure, CI/CD, containers, security and governance, and has repeatedly driven developer experience improvements like Backstage and platform-as-a-product at enterprise clients. Comfortable from infrastructure to application level, he translates business goals into pragmatic, secure solutions and guides teams through complex migrations and microservices transformations. His entrepreneurial ventures (including founding Koaly and the recently sold Cravity) give him a commercial lens on value creation, cost control and long-term product thinking beyond pure technology.
