Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolBert Van Vlerken is a pragmatic software developer and architect with ~20 years of experience building enterprise and telecom Java systems, currently helping Hysopt design HVAC software that reduces energy use and carbon emissions. He combines deep backend and integration expertise (APIs, event notifications, cloud adoption) with hands-on delivery across analysis, UI, DevOps and support, preferring pair programming, TDD and the “boy scout” rule to raise code quality. His career progressed from embedded and networked systems at Alcatel-Lucent to leading R&D and shaping platform architectures for mobile wallet and internal enterprise applications at Touchatag and Mazda. Comfortable in both startup and globally distributed teams, he has repeatedly moved between coding and higher-level architecture, keeping a generalist’s curiosity alongside strong Java specialization. Not obvious from titles: he has practical experience with contactless payments, NFC/RFID, embedded DSLAM work and operational tooling—skills that bridge hardware, network and cloud software domains.
