About me

{

I'm a Software Engineer with over 6 years of professional experience building robust, scalable applications across various domains.

Currently based in the Utrecht Area, I specialize in software development with a strong focus on TypeScript and DevOps practices. My journey in tech has taken me from hands-on development roles at companies like Shoppagina and Angry Bytes to my most recent position as a Software Engineer at Keuze.nl (part of Vergelijkgroep), where I spent over 3 years crafting solutions that make a difference.

Not afraid of the Unix command line, and yes—I even know how to exit Vim. I'm constantly learning new techniques and skills to improve myself, staying current with modern development practices and tools. My technical toolkit spans across 61+ skills including Software Development, DevOps, Domain-Driven Design, and much more.

Built a modular system using pre-approved design components with built-in constraints and design tokens, ensuring brand consistency across all pages without requiring design review for each iteration. This solution bridged the gap between design and marketing teams by providing creative flexibility within controlled parameters, significantly reducing page creation time and eliminating repetitive back-and-forth communication.
