Ludo Stellingwerff is a Principal Systems Architect with 14+ years of experience translating principles from biological, social and technical dynamic systems into robust, loosely-coupled software architectures. Holding an MSc in Software Engineering and a BEng in Aerospace Technology, he blends rigorous engineering discipline with a creative, problem-solving mindset developed across roles from CTO to senior engineer. He has deep hands-on experience building agent-based systems and scalable platforms, notably contributing UI and performance improvements to widely used open-source vis.js visualization libraries. Ludo is currently driving architecture at Brighter Signals while maintaining a long-term interest in agent frameworks through the open-source Eve project. An unexpected facet: he channels systems thinking into fiction as a sci-fi author, exploring coming-of-age themes alongside his technical work.
