About

Benoit Vander Stappen

@vdsbenoit

Hi, I am

Benoit

I am a freelance software engineer. I find solutions to business issues using technology. I have 10 years of experience in software development, testing, automation and DevOps, across health, entertainment and new technologies. I have worked for both big tech companies and startups.

01
Cross-platform mobile apps
One codebase, iOS and Android, in the stores.
02
Cloud & on-premises SaaS
Implementation and integration that survives audits.
03
Microservices
Development, deployment and the pipelines around them.
04
Automation & scripting
The repetitive work your team should stop doing by hand.

How I work

Clear communication
Complex problems explained plainly, and every piece of work documented.
End-user focus
Solutions shaped around the people who will actually use them.
Problem solving
I enjoy hard problems and am not afraid to try new approaches.
Teamwork
I share what I know and slot into existing teams easily.
Evidence-based decisions
Choices backed by data, then measured and adjusted.
AI-augmented engineering
I use AI to raise the quality of my work, with the expertise to review every line and take full ownership of the result.
