My name is Bastiaan, and I am a 21-year-old tech enthusiast from the Netherlands. I enjoy working with computers and servers, often experimenting with the latest technologies. I love testing new concepts and tools in virtual machines or containers, which has led me to set up a few servers at home for continuous exploration. I also have a keen interest in creating web applications. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or would like to connect — I am always open to discussing technology and new ideas!

For the Hanze Makerspace, I planned and developed a Next.js dashboard used by over 3,000 students. The dashboard features a ticketing system for job requests, live chat for staff-student communication, and file storage for uploads and downloads. It also includes an inventory and reservation system with authentication via Azure Active Directory. The system was set up in Azure using virtual machines to host databases, web servers, and CI/CD pipelines, utilizing Docker for scalability. This solution has dramatically improved workflow efficiency for the Hanze Makerspace staff, streamlining interactions and operational processes.
For my graduation project at Voys, I developed a microservice designed to identify the current operator for any given Dutch phone number. The service was built with Golang and the Echo framework. This microservice uses COIN to gather realtime information and is designed for scalability, ensuring quick and accurate operator identification. The solution has been successfully deployed and is in use, providing usefull metrics for telecommunications services.
As part of my internship at DICTU I set up a Dependency Track server on their Kubernetes cluster. And by expending the already existing GitLab CI/CD pipelines, I integrated all current and future projects into the Dependency Track dashboard. Using dependency-track, the security of the projects can be monitored and improved. In addition, the dashboard allows for custom policies to be set up, which can be used to make sure builds meet all requirements.
I made a web app for a fictional bungalow park. The web app was made in Python using Flask, Bootstrap and SQLite. From the website, guests can reserve bungalows, and view their reservations. Admins can add bungalows and manage bookings.
View ProjectI created this website using Next.js, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS for a modern, responsive design. It’s hosted on a VPS and deployed with GitHub Actions for streamlined updates and performance. This setup highlights some of my skills in integrating contemporary web technologies and deployment practices.
I made a Python program will automatically evolve better Picobot programs with artificial intelligence using a genetic algorithm.
