An independent data product for the Dutch car market. It aggregates thousands of listings from Dutch marketplaces into clear per-model figures: asking price, monthly running costs, depreciation and reliability.

Sinmux is the backend engineering practice of a senior software engineer based in the Netherlands. The focus is simple: design and build server-side systems that are correct, observable and fast, and that keep working under real-world load.
After years building and operating production backends, I now take on contract, project and freelance work for teams that need an experienced pair of hands on the hard parts: API design, data modelling, performance, and cloud infrastructure.
Pragmatic, communicative and outcome-driven. I plug into your team or run a piece of work independently, whatever fits.
