Omschrijving

I build products, not just software.

As Founder & CTO of Rompslomp, I wrote the first lines of code and scaled the platform to acquisition by Visma. The product was used daily by over 120,000 self-employed professionals in the Netherlands. I was responsible for architecture, product direction and building a team of 14, turning a complex domain into a reliable and widely used product.

Today I work hands-on as a full-stack TypeScript engineer, helping teams turn ideas into real, scalable products — from concept to production.

I combine product thinking, system design and execution. I’m at my best working on complex problems where technology, product and business meet.
