Peter Willemsen is a versatile co-founder and software engineer with 12 years of hands-on experience building secure, full-stack systems across games, web, and distributed ledger technologies from Amsterdam. He co-founded multiple ventures (CodeBuffet, ISA Warden, Chunk Works, SKALY, ION Labs) where he led architecture, prototype development, and integrations of DLTs like IOTA to make tamper-resistant, user-controlled solutions. Equally comfortable in front-end and back-end roles, he has a track record shipping reliable infrastructure—examples include multiplayer/hacker-resistant systems and production-grade APIs. A practical security-minded developer, he contributed to the well-known ccxt open-source library by improving Waves.exchange support, OHLCV correctness, and multi-language integrations. Colleagues describe him as highly loyal, independent, and deadline-driven, consistently delivering pragmatic engineering rather than flashy concepts. He pairs entrepreneurial grit with a curiosity for “special” technical craft—preferring deep, distinctive expertise over one-size-fits-all approaches.
