Work

For work I have worked on Ruby on Rails applications. I started my career as web developer at a startup software company. The website that I worked on provided input and ouput for physical calculation on a compute cluster. My next and current work is at an advertising company. They provide scalable hyper local advertisment for brands with global presence. Both jobs had a focus with Ruby on Rails and DevOps related tasks.

Playlists

Out of personal interest which song is played on Dutch radio stations and how many times, I created a Ruby on Rails website that stores and calculates it. It uses song recognition software or fetches the last played song from the radio station API, stores the result and creates a link for the song on Spotify. On the website the most frequent song of last week is shown.

OCR software

From a colleguea I got a question to make a OCR website that turn a PDF file into a CSV. The website uses the OCR software to turn the file into text. The project is still a work in progress. I'm working on adding openCV to smartly recognize tables in PDF files.

Wedding / RSVP

For my wedding I created a Ruby on Rails website to get guests rsvp. The website generates uniq codes, adds links and QR codes for each guest and had the possibility to add a picture or message to the response.
