Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolPatrick Wouterse is a systems programmer with 16 years of experience based in the Randstad, Netherlands, currently building low-level systems at Nixxes Software BV. He combines a strong academic background in game and embedded systems (MSc Utrecht University, BSc Avans Hogeschool) with hands-on engineering focused on build stability, cross-platform C++ tooling, and performance-sensitive features. Patrick contributes to notable open-source projects like the Spring RTS engine, where he fixes compile/build issues, implements small map generation features, and improves runtime robustness—work that keeps complex game engines buildable across environments. His profile suggests a practical problem-solver who prefers tackling tricky integration and compile-time issues that often hide behind higher-level features.
