Curriculum vitae

CV
Hello, I’m Mark Oostveen. I am a Software Engineer. I help people and myself make ideas come to life, either in an application, app, or game. This gives me motivation and the incentive to continue learning, exploring ever more topics. I always want to explore something new in daily life, which may be programming related, but it can also mean experimenting with something else. I like to go bike and socialize with people through a medium like gaming or directly in my free time. I’m also a tech enthusiast and seek to know every little detail of new gadgets hitting the market.

Product Advisor
Coolblue
Utrecht
With much joy, motivation, amazing colleagues, and many many nice and happy customers. I’ve been working at Coolblue. It’s an absolute feast to help people choose their next new laptop, tv phone, etc. I loved doing that and still am(in the personal sense). I would have loved to work here longer, but…. life goes on, and I needed to pursue my next big dreams!

I am pleased to be working here. This company has some amazing people to work with, as well as some great skills to learn. I’ve been working here on the website and infrastructure side. What I do here is updating the website and sales app, problem-solving for the issues that emerge, and teaching the staff to solve those problems on their own might they emerge again.

Helping student
Student aan huis
All over the Netherlands
Working at ‘Student aan huis’ was always a challenge. The company helps people with tech-related problems by solving them, but this company also gives those people a chance to adapt and learn what they want to learn not to make any of those mistakes again. I was going to people and solving problems.

Other information
I am really not a 9 to 5 person. I often stay longer than needed, either finishing my work or because I like what I’m doing
I really enjoy learning new things and expanding upon my current knowledge, so I often sit down at the weekend just learning new stuff I haven’t touched before.
