Who I am
Welcome! I'm Tom Degryse, a freelance software architect with over 18 years of experience. I've had the privilege of working on a wide range of projects, from embedded systems to cloud-based solutions. My approach to software architecture focuses on creating efficient, scalable, and future-proof solutions that deliver real value.
My journey began as a software developer, where I built a strong foundation in crafting reliable and scalable software solutions. Over the years, I expanded my expertise and grew into a system architect, leading more complex, cross-functional projects. In my previous role at Wygwam & Niko, I led the development of innovative energy-saving solutions, including the first smart algorithm for Niko Home Control. This experience sharpened my ability to design solutions that seamlessly integrate embedded systems, smartphone applications, and cloud platforms.
Now, as a freelancer, I bring my expertise to a variety of projects, helping businesses solve complex technical challenges. My goal is to create tailored solutions that meet your specific needs and drive your project forward.
Let's work together to turn your ideas into reality!
What I Can Do for You
Identify
A successful project starts with a deep understanding of business and technical requirements. I work closely with your stakeholders to gather and analyze requirements, ensuring that the architecture is aligned with your business goals.
Design
I specialize in designing scalable and efficient software architectures that meet your business needs. Whether it's for embedded systems, cloud platforms, or a hybrid of both, I ensure the architecture is robust and future-proof.
Prototype
I help businesses prototype and validate new ideas quickly and effectively. Through solution prototyping and PoC development, I bring your concepts to life, allowing you to test feasibility and gain insights before full-scale implementation.
Develop
With years of experience in (embedded) software, I design solutions that integrate seamlessly with hardware. My focus is on creating reliable, high-performance systems that deliver consistent functionality and are easily maintainable.
Validate
I ensure that your solution is fully validated and ready for the market through rigorous testing, and performance evaluation. From early prototypes to final delivery, I guide the process to ensure your product meets both technical and market demands.
Mentor
With years of experience as a developer and architect, I offer leadership and mentoring services for development teams. I help guide technical decisions, instill best practices, and foster a collaborative environment.
