Matthijs van den Bos

Web Developer and Consultant

In the ten years that I have been active in the world of web development, I have gained extensive experience with development, consultancy, and project management.

Development

As a developer, I have contributed to projects ranging from interactive websites to mission critical back end systems, including complex e-commerce systems and (rich) internet applications for ERP and CRM systems.

Keywords: Object oriented PHP, Javascript, XHTML, CSS, AJAX, SQL, Linux

Specific product/ framework knowledge: Zend Framework, Mootools, MySQL, PostgreSQL

Consultancy

This is all about improving the effectiveness and quality of a development team. Through my experience as manager of a development department and of course as a developer I have learned a great many things about the do’s and don’ts in PHP development.

I can help PHP development teams with:

• becoming more efficient (technology choices, reusability, modular design, tooling);
• improving maintainability;
• improving code quality;
• creating better architectures;

Tools I use: workshops, training courses, on-site participation in development teams .
