About me

As an enthousiastic computer scientist, I will (almost) never avoid a challenge involving the computer. Because of this, I am broadly oriented within my field. I have pratical experience with back-end code, front-end code, softwarearchitecture, operational management and cloudinfrastructure. In my spare time, I like to try new technologies and techniques to learn about the newest developments in my field.

Apart from the time I spent behind my computer screen, I try to swim at least one time a week. As part of a small club of enthousiastic swimmers we are always looking for new waters to swim in. In the summer, you can also find me in open water, like recreational waters. In the winter, I will try to be at the skipiste at least one a year.


Experience

Software and DevOps Engineer

Moneybird BV

Moneybird is the most simple way for entrepreneurs to create sales invoices or estimates and to keep track of their bookkeeping. Thanks to Moneybird, entrepreneurs always have direct insight to the financial situation of their company.

Within Moneybird, I am part of a team of +/- 20 software engineers. As a software engineer, I am jointly responsible for maintaining and improving the Moneybird application.

I am also part of the DevOps team together with 5 other software engineers. The DevOps team is responsible for the cloud-based infrastucture which hosts Moneybird. Within this team we work according to the DevOps principles, in which concepts like ‘Infrastructure as code’ and ‘Rapid delivery’ are central.

Besides my responsibilities as software engineer and DevOps engineer, I also mentor higher education students during their internships and when possible I try to help the HR-team finding new collegues.
