# 💼 Employment History



## Full Stack Web Developer at Lightyear



_September 2021 — January 2023_\

Lightyear was building a car that drives on the sun. How cool is that! I was the lead developer on the website, built using React + Remix, integrated with Storyblok CMS and deployed to Cloudflare Pages for a super fast experience.



## Freelance Front End Developer at VodafoneZiggo, Utrecht



_June 2018 — June 2020_\

Vodafone is merging with Ziggo (a dutch

TV/Phone/Internet provider) and they needed a new online shop. We've built a complex shopping basket in React and Redux. I was involved in making architectural decisions and helping junior developers in the team. During this time I also developed a keen interest in test-driven development.



## Freelance Front End Developer at Ticombo, Remote



_August 2017 — December 2017_

Ticombo is a ticket-marketplace startup. Their app is built using Angular

(4+), and I worked here for a while to support their in-house (but remote) development team.

It was great to experience working in a fully remote team with people from

all over the world.



## Freelance Front End Developer at Deutsche Glasfaser, Hilversum



_September 2017 — December 2017_

At this small telecom company from Germany I redesigned and developed

their Smart TV/Android/iPhone App for watching TV over internet. They were

using Google Closure for the app, and so did I.



## Freelance Front End Developer at Vodafone, Amsterdam



_November 2016 — April 2017_

At Vodafone I've worked in their online shop team for a while, squashing

bugs, developing new features and making some architectural changes to

the codebase. Using mostly HTML/CSS, Grunt, LESS and SASS.



## Freelance Full Stack Developer at Rijkswaterstaat, Utrecht



_March 2016 — May 2016_\

For the ministry of infrastructure and water management I developed a user

interface for one of their database utilities used in construction. This was

my first job using (at the time) a modern web framework: AngularJS. In the

backend I used Neo4j, as their datamodel represented a graph.



## Freelance Front End Developer at CHUNK - Digital Agency, Amsterdam



_2015 — 2019_\

From this point onward I have been working as a freelance developer.

At this digital agency I further developed my specialization in front end

development using mostly HTML, LESS and SASS and good old jQuery.

Various small projects over the course of 4 years.



## Front End Developer at Wirelab - Digital Agency, Amsterdam



_2013 — 2014_\

At this digital agency is where I unknowingly started specializing in front end

development. I mostly used vanilla HTML and CSS.



## Full Stack Developer at Twente Academy, Enschede



_2012 — 2013_\

A small business, run by the university, that provides tutoring to high school

students. I worked on their custom management software in PHP/Zend

Framework.

This was my first programming gig!
