Our Team

Positive by nature and with a constant drive for improvement, Mike knows how to build a great product. With a constant drive for product development, he has successfully introduced Sendsteps to a diverse range of industries. When Mike is not at work, he is “daddy cool” and proud father to their three kids!

A creative mind and a joy to the company! With a broad interest, Steven gets his inspiration out of many things. In 2015 Steven moved to California and he is working on realizing our dream, that is, an engaged audience anywhere in the world!

With loads of experience at Deutsche Bank, Maaike outperforms us all with her pünktlichkeit. Such a pleasure! During her free time, her kids bring her great joy and on a weekly basis she goes to battle during some fierce bootcamps. Rightfully our charming power woman!

‘Bûter, brea en griene tsiis, wa’t dat net sizze kin is gjin oprjochte Fries’ [Frysian]. For sure with Jan Hielco we have a genuine Frysian in our midst. Down to earth, no nonsense and years of sales expierence. In his free time Jan Hielco can be found on the hockey fields of Overveen, where he simply continues scoring!

Fresh and jolly, with Nandi on your side it’s always good fun. But not only that, with a passion for people and company cultures, she likes to get you going with clever Sendsteps use. She rather leaves the company car at the office and comes to you with her own horse! Do you a have a spot at the parking lot?

Exploring new markets, accepting challenges, conquering the world with a small team, that’s what drives Niels. Analytic, broad orientation and focused, Niels brings a trove of online knowledge to the table enabling him to transform Sendsteps to an even bigger player. In his free time he splits himself in as many parts as possible to be able to: play the guitar, drive his motorcycle, take photographs, do some gardening and play with his daughter. Luckily there are 25 hours in a day!

John leads our web development & server operations. He works behind the scenes, making sure our service is smooth & secure. A musician & expat, originally from the UK, John moved to Amsterdam in 2017 seeking adventure (we like to think we’ve provided this).

Developers that know how to work from the bigger picture. Such a delight! Vassilis swopped the Greek sun for the Dutch cloudy skies. Whenever he has a spare moment he’ll jump onto his motorbike: the faster, the better. Racing at the circuit in Spa is his passion. Every Monday we’re relieved to have him back alive!

As a graduating Software Engineer with an eye for design, Bryan likes to work on new features for Sendsteps. In addition to computer programming, Bryan spends a large part of his free time on playing computer games or watching Netflix.

Ask Lodewijk anything about our software or PowerPoint; he has it fixed before you can blink! He has attended more Sendsteps events than any other member of the team. That makes him a specialist in pretty much everything. Even if your life is in danger, he owns a dog [the size of a pony] that can swim like no other!

Ambitiously, Jaouad is graduating from a computer science study. He is motivated working on the challenge that Sendsteps has been able to offer him. In addition to his job within Sendsteps, Jaouad is a motorcycle lover and every other day he enjoys the sunrise while running.

Our Operators are there to support you onsite. They are far more than technical experts. They can help you to get the most out of audience interaction. Because we rarely get the whole team together, every now and then, we catch up whilst taking a canal tour through Amsterdam!
