What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, with opportunities for growth.

I am a product owner with over 4 years of experience in e-commerce, healthcare, and quantum technology. My journey has taken me from being a software engineer to a solutions architect, where I have successfully led cross-functional teams to deliver impactful product solutions. At Mijndomein, I prioritized the product backlog and ensured quality deliverables for over 200,000 users, while collaborating with multiple stakeholders to gather requirements and create user stories.

My analytical skills were honed at FastForward.ai, where I designed architecture and implemented proof of concepts, significantly improving marketing campaign performance insights. I am passionate about leveraging data to drive product improvements, as evidenced by my success in reducing landing page latency by 50%. My diverse background allows me to approach challenges pragmatically, and I thrive in agile environments with globally distributed teams.
