Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolToon Peters is a Product Owner and technical product coach with 13 years of experience guiding products from embedded firmware to cloud and low-code platforms, currently driving governmental digitization initiatives at Roboest. He combines deep hands-on engineering (embedded systems, networking stacks like PicoTCP) with lean product practices to deliver customer value rapidly—often turning ideas into shipped increments in weeks. Toon helps teams automate processes and re-architect for weekly delivery cycles, and has launched fast-paced products such as a DataCamp certification offering built in 14 days. Comfortable across domains (IT, telecom, medical, finance, education) and roles from DevOps to solution architecture, he pairs pragmatic technical fixes with customer-driven roadmaps. A practical tinkerer by training (MSc in Electrical/Electronics Engineering) who still fixes low-level issues in open-source TCP stacks, he brings both systems-level rigor and a playful enthusiasm for creating value.
