Thijs Damsma is a Lead Software Engineer with 12 years of experience designing and implementing data-driven systems for large-scale civil engineering projects, including multi-hundred-million-euro reclamation and monitoring programmes. He combines strong Python backend skills (Pandas, SQLAlchemy, Pyramid/Flask) and geospatial databases (PostgreSQL/PostGIS) with front-end tooling and automation (Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD, Vue) to turn heterogeneous field data into actionable insights. At Van Oord he built geotechnical data platforms, simulation tools for operational downtime analysis, and highly automated reporting pipelines that directly supported complex project decisions. Comfortable in both research and production contexts, he often bridges domain expertise in coastal engineering with pragmatic software practices to increase reproducibility and reduce manual work. Based in the Netherlands, he continuously explores new techniques to set team best practices and has a background that uniquely spans coastal engineering (MSc Delft) and hands-on field project experience.
