Senior🎓
Top SchoolPeter Boers is an IT specialist and technical product manager with 11 years of experience designing and delivering automation and orchestration solutions for network, trust, and security domains. Based at SURF in the Netherlands, he has led technical teams building a distributed automation stack that enables end-to-end network service chaining using open technologies like Python and YANG. Comfortable spanning hands-on system engineering (DNS, MySQL, Puppet, CentOS, TCP/IP) to product-level architecture, he has a proven track record of translating research-grade ideas into operational services. His background includes large-scale hosting operations and IPv6 migration work, giving him practical insight into resilient, highly clustered environments serving hundreds of thousands of users. Peter’s master’s thesis on restoring TCP sessions via DHT signals a continued interest in distributed systems and inventive problem solving beyond day-to-day product delivery. Colleagues value his blend of DevOps workflow discipline, technical leadership, and a knack for pragmatic automation.
