About me
Hey there! I'm Sven Nijhuis, a 25-year-old software developer based in Zaandam with a passion for building innovative and efficient applications.
I specialize in back-end technologies and have experience with various frameworks and programming languages. My professional journey is currently focused on .NET, C#, and Rust. I also have experience working with frameworks like Node.js, TypeScript, NestJS, Express, React, and Next.js.
I’m dedicated to staying at the forefront of software development. In my spare time, I work on personal projects, explore new technologies, and stay updated with industry trends. For me, programming isn’t just a profession it's a passion.
When I’m not coding, you can find me running or setting ambitious personal challenges, like completing a marathon. As a former professional cyclist, I’ve traveled extensively across Europe, learning the importance of discipline, focus, and perseverance qualities I now channel into my work as a developer.
