Samuel Vandecasteele is an Integration Architect and Managing Partner with 11 years of experience helping organizations build hybrid, cloud-native integration platforms that connect CRMs, ERPs, microservices and SaaS. He leads i8c’s practice in Application Integration, API Management, event-driven architecture and serverless patterns, combining hands-on design with pragmatic delivery and vendor partnerships. Samuel has steered cloud migration and real‑time integration programs for large enterprises like Johnson & Johnson and built a cloud-native competence center focused on AWS, Kubernetes and event streaming. Based in the Ghent metro area, he blends engineering depth from a Ghent University M.Eng. with business acumen from Antwerp Management School, and is known for translating complex integration landscapes into maintainable, observable platforms. An interesting non-obvious detail: he balances partner-level leadership with day-to-day architecture work, still diving into middleware, XSLT and platform integrations when projects need it.
