Mind-blowing
software development.

Devminds is the consulting company of Olivier Paesbrugghe, application architect and consultant based in Belgium. I design and build the systems that have to hold up on the night: multi-tenant platforms, event-driven backends, and ticketing that survives contact with a real crowd.

Olivier Paesbrugghe, Application Architect and Consultant

I work as an application architect at ECS, one of Europe's leading logistics groups. From its headquarters in Zeebrugge, ECS runs integrated supply chain and intermodal transport across more than 35 European countries, moving over 70,000 containers a year and operating the largest reefer fleet in Europe. I'm part of the IT management team there, so I get to shape both the architecture and the direction it serves.

Devminds is where I build my own products. Two of them are live and serving paying customers, which keeps me close to the code long after the design is finished. I write the migrations, own the deploy, and answer the phone when a ticket shop is under load twenty minutes before a match. That is the best way I know to stay honest about which abstractions genuinely earn their keep.

If you're building something where correctness under pressure matters as much as shipping quickly, that's exactly the work I enjoy most.

  • Architecture & system designDomain boundaries, integration, migration paths off legacy
  • Multi-tenant SaaSTenant isolation that holds up to an audit, not just a demo
  • .NET & AzureFrom greenfield to unpicking what the last team left behind
  • Event-driven & real-timeMessaging, idempotency, and state that stays consistent

Products

Two products I built, and still run.

Not case studies from a portfolio. These are live systems with real customers, real uptime, and my name on the support inbox.

Ticketing platform

Ticketminds

Ticketing built for indoor sports

A multi-tenant ticketing platform for volleyball and basketball clubs. Seat maps and season subscriptions, a point of sale for the desk at the door, scanning that keeps working when the venue Wi-Fi doesn't, and a shop each club runs under its own name and domain.

Knack Volley Roeselare sells its tickets on Ticketminds, one of the top clubs in Belgian volleyball. Full houses, season subscriptions, and a queue at the door that doesn't get to wait.
