Rutger Hendrickx · · Software Engineer

I'm a Software Engineer from Belgium, based in the bright city of Leuven.

Over the past years I've had the pleasure of working on many projects and products using a variety of technologies. If you're interested in some of the work I've been doing have a look below and check out how I got here!

In The Pocket

Software Engineer

In July of 2019 I get the opportunity to join In The Pocket as they recently opened a new office in Leuven!

I start off with working on a project for Payconiq by Bankcontact. It involves integrating services such as PingPing and Kadonation into the app into one seamless experiences. The integrations are embedded web applications powered by React.

After the first few successful integrations I move to a new project, this time for a Fintech startup. They're trying to help users accomplish their dreams by guiding them towards saving goals. We end up cloud-native services with PSD2 integrations and a mobile app powered by React-Native. The services are powered by Node.js, GraphQL and Postgres, written in TypeScript and running in Kubernetes.

Next I end up on a VR related project for an entertainment company. We end up building a video processing pipeline in the cloud using Event Driven Architecture. The pipeline is powered by Node.js, Google Cloud PubSub and ffmpeg, all written in TypeScript. The entire platform runs on Google Cloud GKE and the configuration and deployments are done using Terraform and Kustomize.

That brings me to today where I am part of the team working for TP Vision, a large scale television manufacturer. We're building out their new Wave platform. A platform to remotely manage a fleet of displays. The platform runs on AWS and uses technologies such as AWS IoT, Fargate, Lambda, SNS, SQS, MongoDB, Node.js GraphQL and is written entirely in TypeScript. The platform is accompanied by a web portal powered by React.

Boondoggle

Software Engineer

In November of 2015 I take another leap and join Boondoggle to further develop my skills on the web. I end up working on some of the largest projects within the company.

The team I end up on is part of a consortium that builds out the new frontend tier of Argenta Netherlands, a large bank in the Netherlands. In little over a year we launch the first part of the transformation with a new personal banking web application. The year that follows we continue expanding this web experience as well as integrate loans.

During this project my main focus goes to integrating a collection of difference back-end systems, combining them into an easy to consume API for the new frontend. I also learn Angular and Sitecore while building parts of the frontend.
