Background

I am an ambitious and driven individual with a strong passion for computer science and software engineering. With a proven track record of success, I am constantly seeking new challenges to push myself beyond my comfort zone.


During my time at Technical University of Delft, where I pursued a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, I specialized in data science and AI. I took a minor abroad in Stockholm, Sweden, where I gained a deeper understanding of Ethical Hacking and Multi-Agent Systems.


In my Master's degree there, I delved extensively into Deep Learning, Quantum Computing, and the field of Side Channel Analysis. Notably, I had the privilege of publishing a toolbox in Side Channel Analysis, which has made a lasting impact and continues to be utilized by researchers in the field.


In addition to my academic achievements, I have been actively engaged in personal projects, particularly in Rust development. These projects have allowed me to apply my knowledge and enhance my skills in a practical setting. I have also dedicated my time as the Chief Software Engineer at Forze Hydrogen Racing, where I led a team of talented individuals in building the world's fastest hydrogen race car. This experience provided me with valuable insights into C++ programming and honed my skills in planning, presenting, and collaborative teamwork.


Furthermore, I have been working at Flow Traders in Amsterdam since August 2022, where I have contributed to the development of various projects and continued to expand my skill set. With a focus on DevOps and system engineering this has been the place for me to develop my skills in automation and troubleshooting.


Beyond my academic and professional pursuits, I have actively contributed to the field of Powerlifting. As a coach, I have had the privilege of sharing my knowledge and supporting others on their powerlifting journeys. Additionally, I had the opportunity to collaborate with a friend in developing a unique coaching website, which has gained recognition and is now utilized by two of the best powerlifting coaches in the Netherlands.


I am motivated by challenges and thrive in environments where innovation and growth are encouraged. I am eager to apply my skills and expertise to tackle complex problems and contribute to the success of organizations that align with my values and aspirations.
