Jan Paul
knitted.monitors.tanksFull-stack software engineer based in (and around) Amsterdam.
My name is Jan Paul. Together with my lovely wife Roos (and way too many kids) I live in Amsterdam. I practice the martial art taekwondo rather fanatically, and I run 5km per day although I will never really do that just for fun. I’m trained as an F-16 fighter pilot but at some point I made the switch to my other hobby - writing software. I've been doing that since I was eight years old. My main passion is on optimising code and this is why most of my clients are in the web, gaming & media space - any company that's in need of highly performant software. For the geeks among you, I prefer the programming languages Javascript (React), C++ and Rust. Apart from my software activities, I’m also responsible for the hiring process at companies within "my" comfort zone (media, mostly), setting up development teams and making sure said teams are able to do their jobs, without too many distractions.
