Summary
Damien Overeem is a pragmatic software developer and owner with 13 years of experience combining system administration, web development and project leadership. He evolved from a decade managing Windows/Novell/Unix environments into a senior developer role, architecting and refactoring web platforms, payment and hosting automation, and reusable application frameworks. Comfortable across PHP/ASP, JavaScript, HTML/CSS and Unix tooling, he bridges ops and dev workflows—introducing OOP, SVN and disciplined development processes at multiple companies. As lead developer and now running his own studio from Leeuwarden, he pairs hands-on coding with client-facing project management and consultancy. Notably, his background in large-scale hosting automation and long-running maintenance projects gives him a strong focus on reliable, maintainable systems rather than trendy one-off solutions.
