Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJasper Linschoten is a Lead Principal Backend Engineer with over 25 years in software development and more than a decade in senior technical leadership roles, currently shaping the core platform at Backbase from Hoogkarspel, Netherlands. He blends hands-on backend craftsmanship with architecture and chapter-level leadership, driving SDLC, mentoring engineers, and aligning product, sales and customer needs to deliver omni-channel banking solutions. His background spans Java EE, modern CI tooling and enterprise integrations—experience earned over long tenures building eBanking and eLearning systems since the late 1990s. Jasper is comfortable switching between deep technical design and pragmatic release management, having managed codelines, builds and second-line customer support. Notably, he started his career without formal technical training and later complemented it with a humanities degree, giving him an uncommon mix of disciplined engineering and strong communication. He focuses on building secure, testable systems and lifting team capabilities as much as on shipping features.
