Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolHenry Van Wagenberg is a versatile entrepreneur and software engineer with 12 years of experience building web applications, leading distributed teams, and founding product-driven startups. Based in Berlin, he co-founded Baugarten, a game that teaches STEM through geometry- and algebra-based world-building, and has freelanced for major Berlin startups while maintaining a hands-on Ruby on Rails practice. His background blends product, sales, and operations—he founded and sold RateMyStudyAbroad.com, managed a Philippines development team on-site, and ran field sales across North America. Unusually, his path includes a year of solitary study in ancient philosophy, internships at the White House and Taiwanese government, tall-ship sailing, and fluency in German and conversational Mandarin, giving him a rare mix of technical depth, cross-cultural leadership, and creative curiosity.
