Summary
Thomas De Craemer is a pragmatic tech lead and senior software engineer with over a decade of experience designing maintainable, cloud-ready systems and optimizing low-level algorithms. Currently leading CERM O2, he has a track record of translating complex business needs into production-ready architectures—recently authoring grant-winning proposals and laying the algorithmic groundwork for a genAI-based matching product. He combines deep .NET expertise with modern cloud, observability, and CI/CD practices, having driven migrations from .NET Framework to .NET Core and led search engine modernizations across Solr, OpenSearch and commercial providers. A hands-on coach and technical architect, he routinely embeds ISO 27001 and security-minded implementations into development workflows. Notable for marrying practical engineering with research-led R&D, he helped build event-driven, message-based microservices for domain-heavy systems such as seed-breeding and pharmacy platforms. Based in Bruges, he’s known for mentoring teams, promoting DevOps culture, and turning ambitious AI ideas into deployable, governed solutions.
