About me

With more than 25 years of experience in Software Development, working in companies of all sizes and stages of maturity, as well as different industries, I have a unique perspective on how to achieve great results in software development. I quickly assess situations, identify areas for improvement and get on it!

While most of my career I have been a Software Developer (or 'Engineer' if you like) myself, I've taken on other roles like Team Manager, Architect and most recently Engineering Director. I still code (for fun and profit), just not as much as I used to.

I have been programming Perl for more than 15 years before I decided to dive more into Frontend and all things JavaScript (TypeScript, NodeJS, Angular, etc). For the last 8 years, this has been my language of choice. However, in situations where I don't have to do the coding myself, I do not care about the exact tech stack that much - as long as it does the job.

Livery stable

Together with my wife, in 2010 we established 'Pensionstal De Groene Heerd' - a livery stable.
My wife (Mickey Groeneweg) is the driving force behind this, and I assist her where possible.


Photography

For a few years I have been working together with Jan Peter Mulder in his photography business called MulderFotografie. Occasionally I still assist him in my free time.
