Software Engineer
Biography:

Derviş traded load-bearing structures for load-bearing Python scripts nearly a decade ago and never looked back. As an engineer at Sopra Steria he works on projects for TenneT, helping build the infrastructure for the energy transition. Which, if you ask him, is a pretty exciting place to write Python for a living. In his own time he’s turning a pizza discovery and ranking platform into a production monorepo. You’ll likely learn more about his pizza obsession at PyCon NL.
