Felix Faassen’s Summary
My experience covers software development, internet technology and security. My specialties are to do with system integration, software development. I am a creative person and can be of value as an architect, consultant or designer. My power lies within the combination of drive, a deep knowledge of ICT and a good set of communicational skills. I learn fast and I like to not only apply this knowledge, but also share this with others.
Being able to speak both ‘languages’, I often function as a translator between conceptual people and the technicians that work on the projects. I like to place the ingredients creativity, commercial awareness and global trends in a bigger perspective.
I seek inspiration and adventure in hiking through the world’s highest mountains and dive in the big deep blue.
