Senior🎓
Top SchoolWerner Roets is a Lead Software Engineer with 13 years of hands-on experience building front-end and server-side web and mobile applications, currently leading engineering at Yenza. He brings deep practical knowledge across Flutter, Laravel, PHP, and Linux server administration, paired with a lifelong coder’s curiosity that started with a hobby game hosted on Newgrounds in 2005. Werner has progressed from junior PHP roles supporting large Magento e-commerce systems to architecting full-stack solutions and mentoring teams, often preferring pragmatic, “batteries included” approaches. Based in the Western Cape, South Africa, he combines disciplined formal training in software development with language study in German, and still spends most spare hours coding rather than watching TV—a sign of continual learning and craft.
