PhD Candidate
Data Intensive Systems

Pieter is a highly motivated individual with a deep passion for tackling complex problems and a strong drive for continuous learning. This intellectual curiosity manifested early in his life, leading him to pursue diverse interests. His proactive nature also extends to sharing knowledge, demonstrated by his initiative in teaching programming to elementary school students.

This goal-oriented mindset is further evident in his dedication to long-term achievements, such as completing the 2023 Utrecht Marathon. Academically, Pieter pursued a Double Master's degree in Mathematical Sciences and Computing Science at Utrecht 木瓜福利影视, providing him with a robust theoretical foundation in Scientific Computing, Algorithmic Data Analysis, Algorithmic Optimization, and Operations Research.

Throughout his studies, Pieter has consistently sought opportunities to apply his knowledge to real-world challenges. His bachelor's thesis focused on optimizing shunting operations for Deutsche Bahn, a project that has since been further developed for internal integration. For his master's thesis, he developed a reliable forecasting approach for consumer energy demand and robust battery planning, addressing a critical need in the energy transition, and multiple parts from this thesis are now also integrated into the Energyworx Platform.

Pieter is eager to collaborate, share insights, and contribute to impactful projects.
