Build
AI delivery & architecture
AI delivery: knowledge agents, agentic AI architecture, AI Act readiness, AI in CI/CD.
Twenty years leading IT through every shift, and keeping it pointed where the business needs to go.
A federal health insurer · the capability
At a Belgian federal health insurer I built it from scratch: the reference models, the viewpoints, the governance, and the first architects to run them. Then I secured the funding to keep it running as a permanent capability, and led the IT-strategy work that set its direction.
A federal customs administration · the programme
A multi-year programme and portfolio led for a federal customs administration, implementing Belgium's national customs modernisation on the EU's mandated timeline. Chaired the programme's Digital Steering Committee and represented Belgium at EU technical meetings.
A payroll and HR services group: the turnaround
With the platform team, re-architected the infrastructure for about 70% lower total running cost and quadrupled software performance; the unit was ready to bid into the contested municipal segment. An agile transformation cleared about five years of backlog in two months.
Now · the AI era
Knowledge agents over enterprise documentation. AI in the build pipeline. AI Act readiness. Agentic AI architecture, designed for governed environments. I completed the Postgraduate in AI Technology Architecture at PXL University of Applied Sciences in 2026.
Modern Business-Intelligent Architecture and Solutions. Leadership in the age of AI.
Two decades of senior IT leadership in the Belgian public sector. I also train TOGAF and Agile.
Principal architect · Belgium
Twenty years of lived enterprise architecture. Infrastructure, data, code, and AI. Where systems that don't behave the same way twice meet the governance they still have to pass.
Architecture capability built from zero at a Belgian federal health insurer. Programme and portfolio delivery for a federal customs administration. A national payroll platform pulled back to stable delivery. Five regulated sectors, one senior IT leader, accountable.
A reference architecture pattern for AI agents: a retrieval layer that grounds the model on trusted sources, an action layer that executes bounded tasks, and a monitoring layer that records what the system did. The pattern names the seams MOBIAS designs to; specific deployments are documented per engagement.

Advise
EA-practice Kickstart, Author, or Nurture. Programme rescue. Ad interim senior IT leadership: lead, reorganise, manage out of crisis, then prepare for succession.
Govern
AI Act, GDPR, COBIT, ISO 27k governance. TOGAF and SAFe training. Architecture decisions built to pass CISO and DPO review.
One senior IT leader, accountable. Build engagements run end-to-end; Advise engagements work in Kickstart, Author, or Nurture shapes. When an ad interim mandate is in flight, new Build engagements and Training cohorts pause or reduce. Book a conversation to scope.
A short scoping conversation is the cheapest way to find out whether MOBIAS is a fit. Thirty minutes, no slide deck, two architects talking shop. Pick a slot that suits you.
