Top SchoolDries Augustyns is a product-focused technologist with eight years of experience building and launching software businesses and products from idea to scale. Currently a Product Manager at Rydoo, he simultaneously founders startups—Plunk, which delivers over a million emails monthly, and Swyp, a procurement platform for dentists—demonstrating a strong blend of product strategy and operational execution. His background as a Technical Architect at Microsoft and hands-on engineering roles give him a pragmatic appreciation for architecture, developer workflows, and shipping reliable systems. He thrives at the intersection of product, engineering, and entrepreneurship, routinely moving between high-level vision and low-level delivery. Based in Brecht, Belgium, he pairs applied computer science training with a track record of turning inefficiencies into scalable products that save time and money. An often-overlooked strength is his ability to run multiple ventures in parallel while maintaining product momentum and technical quality.
