Tuur Van holen

Freelance full-stack developer & data engineer · software, AI & automation through Stromac

Pharmacists use my code every day to portion chronic medication; before that I turned sensor data from workplace wearables into numbers on Azure. Three years, and each time the whole thing: schema, backend, queues, frontend, deploy. I add AI where it solves a problem, not because it is expected. Hybrid in the Ghent–Antwerp–Brussels area, remote elsewhere.
