Summary
Sjoerd Mulder is a seasoned full-stack technology leader and co-founder currently serving as CTO in Amsterdam, with 14 years of experience building scalable, event-driven systems from hardware and networking up through polished JavaScript UIs. He has a strong track record designing cloud-native platforms using Scala, Akka, Mesos, Docker, Elasticsearch and Cassandra, and previously built a REST-based PersuasionAPI adopted by enterprise customers like Booking.com and KLM.
