About us_
Alex Kuiper
is CTO of QSD, a VIM nerd, Whovian, runner and model aviation fan. He heard about this obscure new conference called ‘Joy of Coding’, decided to visit and loved it so much he kept coming back and ended up joining the team.
Erik Hooijmeijer
is principal developer at 42 B.V. Loves coding for fun and profit, collector of 8 bit commodore computers, former organizer of Masters of Java.
Fell in love with Joy of Coding at the first edition, organized a workshop at the second. Had trouble attending subsequent editions and has
now chosen the smart way to attend, help organizing it!
Paul van der Maden
is a versatile and independent software developer in the Java landscape. Besides coding on multiple big and small projects, this team player and music lover is always looking to explore exiting new lands. So, he joyfully grabbed the chance again this year to broaden his horizon by co-organizing the 2022 JoC edition.
Erik Pronk
is a passionate software engineer that has been working in IT since 2001. During this period he has gained a lot of experience in a variety of technologies, roles, development environments and market segments.
His main focus is on implementing enterprise solutions in an agile way. In his spare time, Erik loves to run and experiment with VR and domotics. Erik works at JDriven where he shares his passion and drive with other colleagues.
Arthur van Leeuwen
fell in love with computers and code as a kid and has been privileged enough to turn that love into a career. Bounced around in academia as a programmer and assistant professor for a while, and now works at Nedap, where he gets to code, architect and teach.
