GavynEmbraced versatility and passion, and excelled in guiding project teams towards their goals
When I started out at Itility, I was an eager and curious engineer, open to see where my career would bring me. Within Itility, I got the opportunity to explore my own career path, trying out different roles as an engineer or considering being an architect. During this journey, I realized the hands-on work in a team is what I love to do. I tried, fell, got up again and kept growing, while Itility was (and is) always there to support me.
I would not call myself an entrepreneur, but there is some entrepreneurship in everyone working at Itility. This brings the power and energy to our project. Aiming for the moon, but you’re not on your own. Together, we will get to the finish line.
In my technical journey, I started out as an infrastructure engineer, performing all kinds of migrations. From that point, I got infected by this drive to automate and optimize everything I touch. It was time for a different direction in my career, so I took the path of configuration management and infrastructure as code. Combining the infrastructure background with a more software driven approach made me more and more enthusiastic about my work. Cloud came around, and combining my enthusiasm about automation and software driven approaches with cloud again brought me to a next level.
Currently, I am in my happy spot, being a lead engineer in a high performing DevOps team, combining cloud, automation, software, data, and infrastructure. The future is bright, and if I want to shift my direction, I’m sure Itility will support this.

When I started working at Itility nearly 8 years ago, I couldn’t have imagined the journey that would be ahead. I just received my bachelor‘s degree in software engineering, started my role as IT consultant at Itility and immediately started on my first project at a big customer. I was added to a team with experienced engineers, giving me the room and safety net to quickly learn, fail and improve in a controlled way. We automated the deployment of virtual machines in an on-prem datacenter, and the installation of default software and services, saving the datacenter engineers countless hours of clicking around.
In the years that followed, more and more of our customers started their cloud journey. To stay (and keep) up to date with the latest trends and tech-updates we visited multiple global Azure and AWS conferences. I was fortunate to be part of an amazing Itility team with the right “go build” mentality. Together and close with the customer, we accelerated their cloud journeys by building their cloud foundations using infra-as-code, setting up standardized monitoring and migrate/rebuild on-prem applications in the cloud.
In my current project, SSA (Self Service Analytics), we built a one-stop-shop framework for our customer’s data analysts. This enabled them to get quick access to their favorite tools, the data they require and provide best practices in creating and sharing new datasets. Over the past months, the platform quickly grew to over a thousand active users. A moment that stood out was where we received compliments from our vendor calling our SSA platform a “best-in-class framework”.
