Erik Ammerlaan -Full Stack Engineer and organist

‘From a young age, I’ve had a fascination with programming. I wrote my first code when I was eight years old. So, I knew early on that I wanted to do something with computers when I was older. I found and still find it interesting how technology can help make people’s lives easier and better. For example, at secondary school, I developed an electronic learning environment where teachers could put their teaching material for the students. It was an asset for the school because it saved a lot of time.’

Manuel Mazarredo - Auditor, Ethical Hacker, father, Black Belt and Ironman

'I’ve always wanted to help people in whatever way I can. I used to be a project manager and in that role I ensured that people could get the best out of themselves so that we could make the project a success. Helping people is what I did in my volunteer work in Central America. It was about education, people and not just money, but teaching the right knowledge and skills for them to constructively and continuously improve.’

Aafke Croockewit - UX Designer, DJ and Kitesurfer

‘I started at NN as a freelance UX designer. I really value freedom, creativity and responsibility and they aren’t things you immediately associate with a large corporate. That prejudice was quickly dispelled. I work in a team with other designers and developers. We’re like an independent unit in the organisation. We set our own work and are given lots of room to innovate. The projects are very varied and you can decide whether you spend more time on concept development or on implementation. And because we all get on so well together as a team there’s a great atmosphere. All in all, reason enough for me to give up the freelance life. And I’ve got a lot of benefits in return.’

Yvo Wesselius -DevOps Engineer and a tennis player

‘We adopt an agile way of working at NN. The work I do depends on what we discuss with our team in the daily stand-up meetings and what’s on the sprint backlog. My work is very varied: from development to operations. Sometimes I’ll be implementing a new service or improving an application and at other times, I’m helping internal users if they encounter problems with our services. As a team therefore, we have a wide responsibility. That makes agile working great fun. Because what you develop and produce you also have to manage. It didn’t used to be like this. Back in the day, development and operations were two separate worlds.'

Willem Jan Noort - DevOps Engineer Data & Analytics and early bird

‘At NN there are various teams working on Machine Learning models to predict future customer behaviour. To do this, you often have to trawl through lots of historical data. It’s not much fun for data scientists to have to continuously wait on their laptops to see a result. That’s why I recently implemented a process that can implement virtual machines in an automated way in the cloud. It was a great task. When you log in on this virtual machine, you get access to a strong, scalable computer on your laptop, giving you enough capacity to analyse all data.'

Vijai Ramcharan - Innovation Architect, culture lover an family man

‘As an 11 year-old in the 1980s, my older brother took me on a trip to the V&D store, where there was a Commodore computer. My brother showed me how to write a simple computer program. At the end, your name appeared on the screen in a form of animation. It was amazing. The feeling of creating something was really cool. You could say that I’ve been a techie at heart from a young age. As an Innovation Architect at NN, I now work on technical innovations consistent with a business in transformation. We use state-of-the-art tools to create our applications, the kind that start-ups also use. These tools include AWS Lambda, Serverless computing, Node.js, GraphQL, TypeScript, React, React Native.’

Marco Kerstens - IT Engineer, gamer and Lord of the Rings fan

‘When I started work at NN, I gradually realised that I could talk to my colleagues about much more than just work. I could talk to them about my hobbies, which include the fantasy genre of books, films and games, such as The Lord of the Rings and The Witcher. I love seeing how people can invent other worlds. I also enjoy games. I’m pretty competitive and also take part in tournaments. When you bring this into the conversation, you discover funnily enough that there are lots of other colleagues who enjoy the fantasy genre and games.’

Martijn Walter - Digital Technical Solution Analist and innovator

‘We can’t ignore it: IT is crucially important for Nationale-Nederlanden. We’re experiencing more and more competition after all. New providers are using the latest IT technology. This makes it important to stay connected and working on a state-of-the-art IT infrastructure is a huge challenge, especially as we’re working with obsolete computer systems in some parts of the organisation. However, these systems need to be optimally integrated with new technologies to continue to meet user demand.'
