Description

Patrick Peek is an independent Solution Architect with over 20 years of experience in Data. Patrick has delivered projects across Healthcare, Finance, Transport, Energy and Utilities, and more recently Pensions and B2B SaaS. Within these projects Patrick has fulfilled the roles of Solution Architect, Data Architect, Lead / Principal Consultant, Data Engineer, Information Analyst and Technical Designer. Over the past year Patrick has specialised in production-grade AI/LLM systems, designing hybrid architectures that combine large language models with deterministic engines and shipping them to production rather than stopping at proof-of-concept.

Alongside his technical skills Patrick has broad knowledge of business processes, which enables him to translate customer needs into workable solutions. He is analytical, pragmatic, and keeps the total oversight of a project while remaining hands-on in the details. This makes Patrick an ideal architect for multi-disciplinary teams.

Recent projects: FlowOptimo, APG Pensions, T-Mobile, Postcodeloterij, TB Auctions, Shell, Dynata, VidaXL, DLL.

Reusable solutions developed: ETL generator for SSIS, Continuous Integration frameworks for AWS and Azure, Infrastructure-as-Code templates for multi-tenant SaaS platforms.
