Willie Scholtz is a pragmatic full-stack engineer with 12+ years building Java and JavaScript systems across security, risk management, alarm monitoring, and FinTech industries from Amsterdam. He blends hands-on coding with client-facing discovery, solution architecture and team collaboration, treating software as a product and a process rather than just lines of code. At companies like Adyen, Rabobank and Backbase he progressed from backend developer to senior platform roles, shipping resilient, compliance-conscious systems. An active contributor to the MyBatis project, he added flexible configuration hooks that improve extensibility for Java users—evidence of a practical open-source mindset. Motivated by a desire to create software that helps people, he pairs deep technical curiosity (hardware and base-2 enthusiasms included) with a can-do, knowledge-sharing approach.
