      Oct 2011 - now

      I started my professional career in the IT world by developing websites and web apps, which I continue to love to this day. The projects cover a wide variety of different websites and web apps, ranging from simple webshops to a complex and advanced Customer Relationship Management application. As of November 2017, I manage 8 servers in a mixed Windows 2012/Linux environment. I am responsible for keeping the servers up-to-date, secure, responsive and online on a 24/7 basis. The servers in question are constantly being monitored by Nagios and run a variety of different services, including Exchange 2013, Active Directory, the Atlassian stack, Apache, MySQL, Postgresql, nginx, haproxy and a uwsgi cluster.

      Intern Mobile App Development

      During my internship at Mobiléa I worked on implementing a remote control feature into their app. The objective was to be able to use their current software stack, which is the Ionic Framework (based on AngularJS and Cordova), to be able to remotely control a remote device, such as would be possible through TeamViewer on a non-mobile device. Completing the internship, I had delivered a pluggable tool that enabled remote control based on WebSockets and AngularJS into their app.
