Founder at Goatstream
Netherlands
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolThomas Geijtenbeek is a founder, C++ developer, and biomechanist with 11 years of professional experience translating academic biomechanics into production-grade simulation software. He built and maintains SCONE and Hyfydy, tools that bridge predictive human movement models and practical applications, drawing on a PhD in computer science and an MSc in artificial intelligence. His career spans academia and industry—multiple postdoctoral appointments funded by a VENI grant and long-term engineering and management roles at Motek—giving him deep expertise in physics-based character animation, musculoskeletal modeling, and AI. As founder of Goatstream he combines product leadership with low-level systems development, often tackling the harder problems of real-time simulation and control in C++. Colleagues describe him as the kind of engineer who moves seamlessly from research hypotheses to deployable software, and he has a track record of creating niche open tools that enable others to reproduce and extend complex gait simulations.
