Top SchoolPeter Van Der Velde is a motivated software developer and PhD candidate at the University of Twente with nine years of practical experience across industry and research. With a Master in Computer Science (Cyber Security) and international study stints in Hong Kong and Valencia, he blends strong technical foundations with a global perspective. He has shipped software in roles at Netsupport and Sigmax and brings hands-on experience from internships at ChipSoft and ASTRON, plus versatile early-career roles that fostered practical problem-solving. Known for a positive, goal-oriented mindset, he pursues software development as a passion and is now focusing on research-driven engineering at the intersection of security and applied systems.
