Summary
Robert Douman is a developer with 12 years of hands-on experience building and supporting enterprise software, currently working at Truworths after a multi-year tenure developing payment and banking integrations at S1. He holds a BSc (Hons) in Computer Science from the University of Cape Town and brings strong back-end skills across Java, C++, SQL, ISO8583 integration, and VHDL-informed hardware thinking. Robert has deep experience designing database models, translating protocols between systems, and triaging critical production issues while liaising directly with customers. Comfortable across the full stack, he also leverages XML/XSLT, OpenGL and enterprise Java (EJB, JSP, JBoss) to deliver robust solutions. Colleagues know him for methodical troubleshooting, pragmatic fixes that respect spec constraints, and the rare combination of software and electronic-hardware design sensibilities. Based in the Western Cape, he seeks a permanent role where he can continue to blend systems integration, customer-facing support, and durable software design.
