Senior🎓
Top SchoolMichael Blijleven is a seasoned web developer and entrepreneur with 11 years of experience building custom web applications, specializing in the Laravel framework. As co-owner of multiple ventures (shipship B.V., Coding Monkeys B.V., and Voicecode B.V.), he combines hands-on coding with product-minded leadership and client-facing delivery. His background in radio and audio production informs a strong sense for user experience, timing, and creative problem-solving beyond typical engineering roles. Based in Schiedam, he has delivered solutions across industries, favoring pragmatic, maintainable systems over one-size-fits-all approaches. Known for a candid, personality-driven networking style, he filters outreach strictly—only messages mentioning "pannenkoekenmix" make it through. That mix of technical depth, entrepreneurial grit, and creative instincts makes him a reliable partner for complex bespoke web projects.
