Tim Van Deurzen is a Back End Engineer with 14 years of experience specializing in programming languages, compilers, partial evaluation and systems-level backend work. Based in Amsterdam, he combines academic rigor (MSc in Computer Science) with hands-on engineering across crypto, networking libraries, databases and distributed systems. He’s worked on blockchain and wallet infrastructure at Blockport and now builds backend services at Liquid while operating as an independent engineer tackling compilers, parsers and analysis engines. Comfortable bridging research and production, Tim also brings team leadership experience as a Scrum Master and holacracy facilitator and a history of teaching core CS courses. A polyglot in both human and programming languages, he’s drawn to new technology and novel problem domains rather than one-off fixes.
