Summary
Bart Verkoeijen is a founder and seasoned software engineer with over a decade of experience building web and cloud applications across fintech, SaaS, and developer platforms. After senior engineering and lead roles delivering customizable wealth-management UIs and cloud-native solutions, he bootstrapped UserVotes to solve a practical product problem: affordable, no-gate feedback boards with flat pricing and enterprise features included. He combines hands-on frontend (React/Angular/TypeScript) and backend (.NET, cloud) expertise with product instincts shaped by customer-driven development and community-facing roles at Microsoft and YOW!. Based in Hong Kong, Bart blends technical leadership, developer advocacy, and meetup organization experience, and he frequently writes about closing the feedback loop and lessons from solo SaaS bootstrapping. An early web developer since 2002, he brings a long track record of shipping pragmatic, user-focused products and building tooling that removes friction for product teams.
