Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolNiels Hamelink is a pragmatic founder and lead developer with 5 years of focused experience building SaaS and web platforms for SMEs and freelancers from Breda, Netherlands. As the creator of MaakEenFactuur.nl he blends user-centric design with AI-driven automation to simplify invoicing, payment tracking and developer-friendly API integrations used by hundreds of local businesses. His background spans end-to-end full‑stack delivery—Laravel, React, Node, Docker and more—earned from founding agencies and shipping large e‑commerce and hosting projects at scale. Niels brings hands‑on CTO experience in Google-centric architectures and AI prototypes, and is comfortable moving between product, ops and code to get practical systems into production. An operator as much as a technologist, he often converts repetitive manual workflows into automated SaaS features (for example a PDF-to-database tool and an AI text-to-invoice beta), reducing friction for non-technical customers.
