Senior Software Engineer

Reinier is a talented FullStack Senior Software Engineer. He joined our team a little over a year ago. I was amazed how in such short period, he managed himself in mastering a complex business and assimilate technologies and tools that were not part of his field of expertise at that time, to the point of being much more productive and efficient than other colleagues with more years of seniority in our field.

He fully masters all facets of Software Engineering, has a solid background of programming principles and patterns, is skilled and super productive in the way of writing code, capable of assimilating new technologies in record time.

One of his most outstanding qualities is the ability to be 100% focused on what needs to be done. He can accomplish any given task efficiently and in record speed. His tenacity, sacrifice, professionalism are a source of inspiration for me and the rest of the team members. It's been a joy and a real pleasure to work next to him all this time.

Software Engineer at Kipu Systems

Reinier and I work at Kipu Health at present time. We work in different teams but we report to the same team leader.

I’m always impressed with Reinier’s ability to write high quality code in a very short amount of time. His productivity is amazing and his work ethic is beyond compare. From the moment he sits down at his desk, he’s a non stop code-writing machine!

Working with Reinier is a real pleasure. No task is too complex or too large for him to tackle. His code is smart, efficient and very effective.

I look forward to continue working with him in the future.
