Journey of a Data Architect (freelancer for 6 years)
My journey as a Data Architect with Kaiporting
Hello, my name is John and I have worked in data for more than 10 years, including 6 years as a freelance Data Architect.
After several years on permanent contracts designing data platforms and data governance, I decided to go it alone to gain freedom, choose my projects and work with more innovative technologies (data lake, cloud, Spark, governance, MDM…).
The move to freelancing was rewarding… but not always easy.
The challenges of freelancing (before Kaiporting)
As an independent Data Architect, I quickly faced several difficulties:
- Administrative and accounting management, very time-consuming and error-prone.
- Late payments from some clients, fairly common in large companies.
- Lack of financial visibility, especially during quiet periods.
- Limited social protection, which was becoming a real concern.
- A heavy mental load, juggling architecture, delivery, team coordination and admin.
I deeply loved my job and the freedom of freelancing… but I needed a more secure framework to keep going with peace of mind.
Why I chose Kaiporting
A cloud engineer colleague told me about Kaiporting.
I already knew umbrella employment, but what convinced me was:
- Their specialist expertise for IT and data consultants
- Their financial transparency
- Their personalised support
Since joining Kaiporting, here’s what has changed for me:
- Optimised pay
- A guaranteed salary every month, even if a client pays late
- Full social protection (health, pension, provident cover)
- Zero-stress admin follow-up
- More time to focus on my data projects
I can now focus on data strategy, cloud architecture choices, modelling and supporting teams, without worrying about the rest.
In summary
With Kaiporting, I kept the freedom of freelancing while regaining the security of employment.
It’s a simple, transparent and profitable solution for any Data Architect who wants to save time, secure their income, get rid of admin and focus on technology and high-value projects.
