My story

From Oracle developer to IAM test specialist

My career started in 1999 as an Oracle Designer. Through the Oracle University programme I grew into an Oracle Developer/Designer, building Oracle Forms and Reports. That is where I found out how much I enjoy turning complex problems into working, reliable solutions.

Around 2000 the IT market in the Netherlands changed because of the millennium projects, and demand for IT professionals dropped sharply. For several years I was station manager of a Texaco service station on the A12, leading a team of 18 people in shifts. I learned what it means to carry responsibility, lead people and work as a team under daily operational pressure.

When the market recovered, I returned to IT, this time as a software tester. At Atos Origin and Ordina (now Sopra Steria) I worked on almost every side of the profession: functional testing, performance, security and, increasingly, test automation.

MaatInICT B.V.

After years of contracting, including for the Dutch National Police, I founded MaatInICT B.V. in 2024. I build tests for One Identity Manager with Robot Framework and set up the complex environments those tests run in.

Robot Framework is my tool of choice. It is the basis of the test solutions I deliver to clients, extended with custom Python libraries where needed.

Alongside the testing work I design websites, a macOS app and mobile games. I use AI tools for the code and keep control of design and user experience myself.

Approach

How I work

Thorough

Every test case matters. I make sure your application is well covered, and quality is a habit for me, not a final check.

Clear

Clear reporting and short lines with the development teams, so findings get resolved quickly.

Always learning

I keep my knowledge of methods, tools and AI up to date. My certifications are listed on the portfolio page.
