Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMichiel Holtkamp is a pragmatic Senior Software Engineer with 20 years of experience building scalable, production-grade systems across cloud-native and data-heavy domains. Currently at Flexport, he focuses on financial visibility platforms using Kotlin, Kubernetes, GRPC/GraphQL, Kafka/Kinesis and both SQL and NoSQL stores, while previously driving full-stack architecture and developer productivity at KPN. He combines a deep desire to understand systems from hardware to high-level architecture with hands-on skills in CI/CD, Linux and automation, and applies hobbyist electronics and mechanical tinkering to solve engineering problems professionally. Known for clear communication and principle-driven decisions ("courage over comfort"), he favors challenging, high-impact work and improving developer velocity rather than surface-level integrations.
