Testimonials

Fabian Klein Schiphorst

Fabian Klein Schiphorst
Senior Manager Microsoft

"Zen and I worked for one year together. He really impressed me, and, in the future, I will rehire him within a second. His wide knowledge of Cloud solutions is something I only saw with very senior architects. He worked in core infrastructure solutions, data, and ML solutions and -his passion- Cloud Native Applications. Next to that he also impressed me with his personality. His communication is extraordinarily strong. Both with customers and internally. If needed he will speak up and challenge the people, he works with. And he is the most certified professional I know 😊"

Dennis Mulder
CTO Microsoft Netherlands

"Zen has amazed me. He joined Microsoft as an intern in September 2019 and I didn't regret him joining Microsoft at all and extended his internship to last almost a year! As a matter of fact I would love to have Zen on my team on any team I am in. Zen is one of the best developers I have met, he figures out solutions to problems quickly, he can communicate his architecture well, always has great ideas and isn't afraid to speak up. Zen is also a great presenter/teacher, as during his internship he has taught others a lot. I am also amazed about his focus on certification, he has proven it is possible to learn quickly."
