Independent software developer · Belgium

Software for problems that don’t fit a template.

I build AI systems, custom software and web applications for companies that have outgrown spreadsheets, SaaS limitations or disconnected systems.

Best suited for business-critical software and complex workflows.
A few lines is enough to start. I read everything myself.

Where I come in

Your software problem probably isn’t “we need a developer”.

It’s usually one of these five. If you recognise yourself, the conversation is short.

01

A manual process is eating hours every week.

Copy-paste between systems, spreadsheets as the source of truth, and one person who knows how it actually works.

02

Your SaaS tools don’t talk to each other.

Data is re-entered by hand, reports disagree, and nobody trusts the numbers in the meeting.

03

Your internal software has become impossible to maintain.

Every change breaks something else, and the people who wrote it are gone.

04

Your AI prototype works, but it isn’t production-ready.

No evaluation, no guardrails, no clear view of cost or failure modes at real volume.

05

Your team needs a senior engineer who takes ownership.

Someone who decides, writes it down and ships it, instead of waiting for tickets.

How it fits together

What those three categories look like in practice.

Three shapes of work I take on most often. Same building blocks, different business problem.

Customer portal

Your data, exposed safely to the people who need it.

ERP / back office source of truth
API layer auth · rate limits
Customer portal react · sso
Live order information no phone calls
Internal automation

The manual process, written down as software.

Manual process excel · email
Business logic rules · validation
Automation jobs · webhooks
Dashboard what happened, why
AI in the workflow

Grounded in your data, checked before it ships.

Your documents & data files · db · tickets
Retrieval & grounding index · embeddings
Model + rules + evals llm · tests
Into the product app · audit trail
Built with

Not a list of everything I’ve touched. This is the stack I can take responsibility for in production.

Backend
  • Laravel
  • PHP
  • Symfony

Where most of the business logic lives.

Frontend
  • React
  • TypeScript

Interfaces for customers and internal teams.

Infrastructure
  • Google Cloud
  • Docker
  • Terraform

Reproducible environments, not snowflakes.

AI & integrations
  • LLMs, RAG & evals
  • REST and event APIs
  • Microsoft Entra
  • SAP integrations

AI as an engineering capability, not a personality.

Selected work

The problem, the build, what changed.

Anonymized projects I actually built. No client logos, no invented metrics. Open a case for the full notes.

Why BV Solution

One person.
No handoffs.

You work directly with the developer designing and building your software. No sales person, no project manager, no chain of people between you and the code.

One senior developer From architecture to production

Direct communication

You email me, I answer. Nothing is relayed through an account layer.

No account manager

The first conversation and the last one are with the same person.

No handoff to junior developers

The person who scopes the work is the person who writes it.

Faster technical decisions

One conversation instead of an internal approval chain.

One person accountable

For the implementation, end to end, including the parts that go wrong.

Architecture stays connected

Design decisions and the code that implements them never drift apart.

Work with me directly When a project genuinely needs a team, I’ll say so.
Approach

Simple model. Strict execution.

Explicit decisions, maintainable software, no theatre.

01

Discover

We align on success metrics, map workflows and systems, and name risks early. You get a scoped plan with understandable trade-offs.

  • A scoped plan with trade-offs in writing
  • Named risks instead of surprises
  • A first milestone worth committing to
02

Build

I ship in milestones with demos, automated tests, and documentation. You see progress continuously.

  • A working slice you can review every milestone
  • Tests where they save pain
  • Decisions written down when they matter
03

Scale

I add observability, harden integrations, and tighten playbooks as usage grows, so reliability improves over time.

  • Monitoring and alerting you understand
  • Runbooks your team can follow
  • Code and notes so you can run it without me
Principles
Ownership I own architectural decisions and communicate cost and risk plainly.
Transparency Written decisions, measurable milestones, no black boxes.
Sustainability Code and docs your team can maintain, or I help you grow the team sensibly.
Same rigor on your roadmap?
FAQ

The questions I actually get.

Still unsure? Send a short message. I’ll say if someone else is a better match.

Often, yes. Usually I take the part that needs senior depth (architecture, integrations, the AI layer) while your team keeps the product context. I’d rather make your team faster than replace it.

Usually. Laravel, PHP, React and the cloud around them are home turf, and I’ve inherited plenty of other people’s code. If your stack is somewhere I’d be slow or risky, I’ll tell you instead of learning on your budget.

Yes, and not only LLM ones. Sometimes rules, classical ML or plain search beat a big model. I pick what fits the problem and your budget, then treat it like any other software: tests, monitoring, guardrails.

From a focused few-week automation to multi-month platform work. Business-critical software and complex workflows are the sweet spot. If a project needs a team of five, I’ll say so and help you scope it properly.

Yes, from Belgium, mostly with clients across Belgium and the EU. On-site when a kickoff or a workshop genuinely benefits from it.

A short message. I reply with a couple of clarifying questions, or a straight “not a fit”. If it makes sense we book a short call, and afterwards you get a written summary with a suggested next step. No obligation.

A scoped first milestone, then delivery in reviewable slices with demos and documentation. You’re buying experience and blunt honesty about what is worth building now, not the cheapest day rate on the market.
