Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolThijs Miedema is a data software engineer with 11 years of experience building exploratory, experimental systems and tooling across industry and research. Based in Arnhem, he combines a physics/astronomy background (MSc, Radboud University) with hands-on software development—from co-founding a game tools studio to optimizing dataflow code at CERN using AVX2/AVX512. He has contributed to notable open-source infrastructure like Eclipse Cyclone DDS, improving documentation builds and fixing core network and IDL issues. At companies including Alliander, ADLINK, and ZettaScale he focuses on data-heavy backend engineering and developer tooling. Curious by nature, he gravitates toward performance-sensitive and large-data problems where careful low-level fixes unlock broader system reliability.
