Résumé
Here's my tiny résumé (also check my LinkedIn):
I'm Bran van der Meer, I live in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. Nice to meet you too. At this moment Im 25 years old. Though without proper education I have at my age already over 6 years of professional web development experience within different internet companies. Currently, I work as a Senior Front End Developer at Mirabeau.
I consider myself a Self Made Man, literally busy with programming since the age of 8.
Below is a selection of the technologies I have experience with:
- HTML5 and CSS3
- JavaScript, with many libraries and tools.
- XML, and related technologies like XSLT, XPath and SOAP
- PHP with various frameworks
- Python 2.4-3.1 with my homebrew framework, also experience with SQLAlchemy and Jinja2
- C# and VB.net with .NET 3.5 (also some .NET Compact)
- Object Oriented, Test-driven development with Revision control (Subversion and Git)
- MySQL, also experience with Database Replication
- SEO, mostly the technical best-practices and traffic analytics.
- General computer and networking knowledge, fluent in HTTP.
- Various components of the Adobe Creative Suite, like Photoshop, Illustrator and Flash
- Various operating systems in a server environment, like FreeBSD, Debian, Ubuntu and Windows Server
I have a general understanding of what happens on the net and I keep that up-to-date. Shameless plug for a friend: the The Daily Nerd helps me with the front end part.
