Wise is one of OCLC’s software products, designed to facilitate these connections through a shared library services platform. I am part of the data team that delivers an analytics pipeline for Business Intelligence purposes. As a Data Engineer, I build and maintain an ELT pipeline that retrieves data from multiple sources and transforms it into formats suitable for further analysis. I work extensively with large volumes of mostly transactional data, ensuring reliability and data quality across the pipeline.

The traineeship began with a four-week general IT bootcamp, followed by specialized Big Data coursework.

RVO (Netherlands Enterprise Agency) supports entrepreneurs in sustainable and agricultural sectors through grants and regulatory guidance. I worked in the GEO team, verifying Dutch farmland boundaries for regulatory compliance. This involved reviewing disputes from farmers, analyzing aerial imagery and GIS data, and explaining regulatory decisions by phone to ensure clarity and transparency.

The learning methods of Noordhoff come with an online learning environment for students. I digitalised the textbooks to make the content and exercises available online. My projects included books for prospective nurses (higher education) and books for Dutch classes (high school).
