A bit of context.
I’m a Senior Lead Engineer and Engineering Manager based in Zaandam.
My work includes architecture decisions, code, releases, and helping other engineers develop. I’ve worked on education platforms, AWS migrations, shared UI components, and software used by SRE teams.
I founded WebNasr and own Comparaison.tn, Tauxdechange.tn, and Cartedecredit.tn. ScoutAI and SwipeJobs are projects I’m currently building.

On my desk
Manuscriptin progress
I’m writing a book.
It’s about job searching and applications: the searches that went nowhere, and what changed my approach. I’m excited to be writing it, especially now, when finding the right role can be such a frustrating process.
It’s still in progress. I’ve shared part of the thinking in “Apply to Fewer Jobs and Mean Every One.”
