Tijmen StorPlatform Engineer
Hey! I'm Tijmen - a Platform Engineer from Amsterdam. My passion is constantly improving the developer lifecycle so developers can do what they do best, as fast and efficiently as possible. I love working with the newest, preferably open-source technologies, and I'll happily automate anything that slows a developer down. When I'm not at my keyboard, you can always challenge me to a game with a racket!
