Bespoke GitOps for your team.
Build faster, deploy safer.
As an independent consultant, I work alongside your developers to bring GitOps to your workflow. Fast builds, a preview environment for every pull request, and production deployments and rollbacks that are just a PR.
Clients I’ve worked with
Begin your GitOps migration journey
Together, we’ll optimize your pipeline and get true continuous delivery. I’ll guide you through the process and work hands-on with your developers and stakeholders to deliver the benefits of GitOps.
Fast, stable builds
The first step in achieving true CI/CD is a stable and fast local development environment. Once developers can rapidly iterate, the rest of the pipeline becomes leverage for shipping changes fast.
- Stay in the zone in day-to-day work
- Less waiting on CI pipelines
Infrastructure as Code
Every cloud resource is committed as code, fully versioned. Infrastructure changes become peer-reviewed pull requests.
- Reduces risk compared to manual changes
- Audit trail supported by version control
Automated, PR-driven delivery
Each pull request is built and deployed to its own ephemeral preview environment. Just send a link to show your changes.
- A live preview for every pull request
- Run end-to-end tests and manual QA before merging
Deploy & rollback via pull requests
Shipping to production is a matter of merging a pull request. Spot an issue? Revert it with a pull request in minutes.
- Deploy continuously with confidence
- Roll back in minutes
Hi, I’m Chiel Robben
I’m an independent consultant with 15+ years of experience. I join your team as a hands-on engineer, writing code, reviewing PRs, sparring with your developers.
I’ve delivered across finance, medical and streaming, where fast, reliable delivery isn’t optional. I’m a full-stack engineer at heart (TypeScript and React as much as AWS and Terraform), so I speak your developers’ language. When the project is complete, your team will have the confidence to take full ownership.
