Top SchoolAmbroos Vaes is a Senior Software Engineer with 12 years of experience building resilient web and backend systems, currently based in Stockholm after a career that has taken him through Belgium, Ireland, and the US. He excels in modern JavaScript ecosystems—React, TypeScript, Flow, GraphQL—and has repeatedly led monorepo migrations, CI/CD improvements, and cross-platform app launches, most recently moving a codebase to Nx and Cloudflare while shipping an Electron desktop app. His background includes backend work in Go, PHP/Hack and Android development in Kotlin/Java, and he’s introduced typed GraphQL and tooling that improved developer workflows at organizations like Meta and Northvolt. Ambroos pairs hands-on implementation with mentoring and hiring, often owning projects end-to-end from concept to deployment and coaching junior engineers along the way. An avid builder of APIs and platform tooling, he also brings practical ops experience—running office networks and in-house hosting—hinting at a pragmatic, full-stack mindset that goes beyond code.
