NOTE: Please write to me on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/rtewierik/) with your availability to schedule a session. I am available mostly in the evening on weekdays and in the morning on weekends.

My name is Ruben te Wierik, I am currently 25 years old, and through this profile, I offer mentoring in various topics listed below.

After graduating from a high school in the countryside of the northern part of the Netherlands in the summer of 2018, I went to study at the Delft University of Technology from which I graduated cum laude with a bachelor’s degree in computer science and Engineering and a specialization in data science in 2021. Since then, I moved to Spain and have been working remotely for various large tech firms like isolutions, OLX Group, Vista, and most recently, Rithum.
I started my career as a backend software engineer using Microsoft technologies like .NET and Azure, and later adopted open-source-oriented technologies such as Java(Script), Kotlin, and Spring Boot deployed on the Amazon Web Services platform. I have also picked up frontend development with TypeScript, React and Angular from the start, although the backend domain is much more exciting to me. Currently, I am working as a staff software engineer for Rithum using TypeScript, Angular, and Amazon AWS in a microservices architecture to make our services highly available all across the world.
