Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRobert Van Dam is a seasoned software engineering leader with 12+ years of experience who currently serves as Director of Software Engineering, blending hands-on LAMP expertise with strategic architecture and team leadership. He has deep roots in Perl-driven backend systems, large-scale billing and provisioning migrations, and has overseen teams, DBAs, and CI/CD at scale while working with terabytes of data and millions of customers. Comfortable across the stack, he pairs low-level system work with front-end skills (HTML/JS/CSS) and modern integration patterns (APIs, JSON, XML), plus experience in C/C++, Java, Python and even esoteric languages like Mozart/Oz and Lisp. His academic background in statistical NLP and machine learning informs production solutions for text and analytics, and he brings multilingual perspective as a fluent Spanish speaker with an interest in linguistics. Colleagues rely on him for practical rearchitecture work—schema redesigns, fraud-detection reports, VAT compliance systems—and for mentoring teams through complex migrations and platform consolidations.
