About

I am Tobias van Beek, a Dutch Senior and Lead developer with a focus on quality.
God send me to Eindhoven so that is the place where I currently live.

My professional work is mainly backend web development and operations.
During my day job, I work for Normec Foodcare Online where we work on software for the quality assurance in the food supply chain. Another part of my job is a continuous search for useful improvements in our toolset and sharing new knowledge in the team.

In my spare time, I occasionally contribute to different open source projects on Github. Be a part of the maintainer team for PHPMD, PHP_Depend and maintain my own on GitLab.
And after a couple of years visiting meetups, I joined the Leadership team of the PHP & Laravel development Eindhoven meetup where I search for and contact speakers to give a talk.

In my life away from code and computers I'm happily married with my wife and father of our daughter.
And I like to build with Lego (with or without my daughter).

Since 2009 I'm allowed to call myself Zend Certified Engineer and since 2018 I'm also allowed to use the title Certified Laravel Developer.
