Xurrent is excited to announce another talented addition to its growing development team. Ruben Hartog joins the company as Senior Software Engineer. He will be based in the Netherlands.

Ruben brings valuable expertise and experience to the team. For the past 10 years, he has worked as a full-stack software engineer for Zilverline and before that Finalist, both companies that develop software for a great variety of customers. As a result, he has experience working on many different projects for a variety of companies. He holds a bachelor’s in Computer Science and a master’s in Software Engineering and is always interested in the whole stack; backend, frontend, and DevOps.

Ruben previously worked with Xurrent’s Robin Roestenburg and Robbert Brak at Finalist and has always followed Xurrent with interest.

“What’s great is that even though Xurrent already offers a mature and complete enterprise service management solution, they still manage to release new functionality every week. I look forward to contributing to Xurrent by adding innovative functionality to further enhance the solution. Xurrent already has an experienced team of talented software engineers and I am excited to be able to work with them.”

A Note From the Road: What SPARK Taught Me About Time

During the second SPARK event in Antwerp, I stood at the back of a training room and watched a customer build a custom integration with our new iPaaS, wiring Xurrent to another system in her stack that had never talked to it before. No services rep doing it for her. No statement of work, no project plan with a kickoff and a go-live date. Just a person with live beta access in her hands, connecting two systems by hand, and finishing it before her coffee went cold. A year ago that would have been a multi-week project with a budget attached. She looked up, a little surprised it had actually worked, and said something I have not stopped thinking about since. She said it just gave her her week back.
