About

I’m an open source enthusiast and Senior Principal Software Engineer at IBM, working on integration technologies. I co-lead the Apache Camel project together with Claus Ibsen, focusing on enterprise integration.

Open Source Leadership

Current Focus

I’m currently working on expanding the Camel ecosystem through subprojects like:

• Camel Spring Boot - Spring Boot integration for Apache Camel
• Camel Quarkus - Supersonic, subatomic Java integrations
• Kamelets - Reusable route snippets for easy integrations

I’m also actively contributing to Syndesis, Hawtio, Fabric8, and various other open source projects.

Interests

Beyond integration, I’m passionate about:

• Security and cryptography
• Cloud-native technologies
• Developer experience and tooling
