System architecture for Medtech and EU R&D
System architecture for MedTech and EU R&D
I design and deliver software architectures for complex, interactive, safety-relevant systems — clinical applications, real-time diagnostic platforms, and EU-funded research programmes.
My work sits at the intersection of system architecture, clinical domain knowledge, and regulatory literacy. Most architects don’t have clinical evaluation experience. Most clinical informaticians don’t architect real-time systems. I do both — and I have held budget responsibility on the programmes where it counted.
I am based in Eindhoven. I am available for fractional MedTech engagements and as a technical partner in Horizon Europe and national R&D consortia.
What I do
MedTech System Architecture
Fractional senior architect for MedTech startups and scale-ups. Architecture decisions, technology selection, and full system design from requirements through clinical practitioner evaluation.
Regulatory Architecture
ISO 13485 internal auditor. Architecture scoped to IEC 62304 software lifecycle requirements from the start. For companies approaching investor due diligence or CE-mark review.
Technical Oversight
Owner-side architecture review for companies that have outsourced MedTech development. Independent scrutiny of vendor architecture before field deployment.
EU Consortium Partner
Work-package technical lead in Horizon Europe, EIC, EIT Health, and national programmes. End-to-end responsibility for WP architecture, deliverable reporting, and partner coordination.
Selected projects
Merging 4D DICOM, segmentations, clinical landmarks and biophysical simulations of TAVI placement to assist interventional cardiologists in device selection and risk assessment.
5G-HEART & 5G-Tours: 3D Telepresence
Provide live 3D volumetric video across a 5G network, shown in XR to a remote expert, in order to provide guidance, advice and instruction to a local caregiver.
Ecopoly XR – (under XR4ED – Horizon Europe)
A collaborative hybrid XR-boardgame delivered as Horizon Europe Open Call. 11 public pilots, 90 participants aged 11-38.
