About
Data Scientist & IT Trainee.
Hi I am Sander, I currently am
years young and incredibly curious to learn new things.
At the moment, I am an IT Trainee at the Nederlandse Spoorwegen (NS) where I work as a Data Scientist.
I followed the Data Science in Engineering Masters Program at Eindhoven University of Technology where I
specialized in machine learning.
In my free time you'll often find me in the gym, binge-watching the next new highest rated shows, playing
videogames,
tinkering with a micro computer or getting lost in trying to learn a new programming
language/library.
You can contact me via email:

2022 - Present
NS, Utrecht
- Data Scientist of the Advanced Analytics Treindigitalisering team where we focus using computer vision projects
- Together with a scrum team of Data Engineers and Data Scientists we are working on ATO (Automatic Train Operation). Using real-time object detection and image segmentation to create a map of the environment around the train with the goal to enable autonomous train operations.
- Together with multiple stakeholders we are working on a automatic image inspection project. The objective is to reduce manual visual inspections, by leveraging computer vision models to detect possible defects in the pantographs and bogies of rolling stock.

Education
M.Sc. Data Science in Engineering
2019 - 2021
Average grade: 8.8 (Cum Laude)
Eindhoven University of Technology, Eindhoven
A Computer Science masters program with a specialization in Data Science. During this program I followed courses about deep learning, process mining, security, data visualization and statistics. For my graduation program I researched a variational autoencoder model for program synthesis of industry-grade programming languages.
B.Sc. Computer Science and Engineering
2016 - 2019
Average grade: 8.3
Eindhoven University of Technology, Eindhoven
A bachelor program in which I learned the basic principles and methods to develop software. The courses I followed range from web development to data modelling, app development, probability and artificial intelligence.
Cambridge FCE
2013

Autoencoders as Tools
for Program Synthesis
Auto waker (Work in Progress)
A automatic android alarm app based on your calendar schedule
2020 - present
A flutter based app that uses the calendar of the device to automatically set alarms based on events
in your schedule.
For scheduling alarms, the app considers any additional wake up time (e.g. for breakfast) and travel
time to the event's location.
The travel time is computed using the Here rest API
and considers any mode of transportation.
Furthermore, the application can notify users the day before an alarm. Users may also customize many
options, such as:
the alarm ringtone, what days to schedule automatic alarms, snooze length, vibration settings, alarm
volume, snooze length,
between what times of the day to schedule automatic alarms and the application's theme.
Source Code Explorer
A web-based source code analysis tool
2020
Software projects can grow large, too massive to interpret efficiently globally. This may lead to software developers losing the overview of their software project. It is worthwhile to analyze the source code on a deeper level, while maintaining a satisfactory overview. This web application provides a visualization of the project is desired to analyze your code in a way such that the quality can be improved. The visualization can help with code discovery, project management, quality assurance, software analysis, code coverage analysis and code execution optimization.
