Kurt Callebaut

In my current role, I work within a dedicated and skilled team — following the Scrum methodology — on the development and maintenance of an existing WMS Companion App, built on .NET 4.7 with SQL Server as its database. My main focus is on the backend, while I also contribute to the Angular frontend when needed. I collaborate closely with the software architects on software architecture design and improvements.

Additionally, I maintain and extend a compact integration platform that connects various ERP systems with WMS solutions. My responsibilities include refactoring, resolving existing issues, and improving stability and performance to prepare the platform for onboarding new warehouses. This platform is built on .NET 8.0, hosted in Azure Kubernetes, and uses MongoDB for state management.

As a .NET developer, my main task was to keep the systems operational — analyzing and fixing bugs and developing new features and applications. This included refactoring legacy code from the current ERP system, developing Xamarin apps for the warehouse and shops, and building support tools written in React with a .NET Core backend.

Together with the team, I developed and maintained the custom-written framework for InterSystems Caché. In the development process, unit testing had the highest priority to ensure the continuity of the company's production/manufacturing. Software quality was achieved by applying knowledge of xUnit patterns, coding guidelines, and clean-code principles as much as possible.
