A Data Analyst translates the data into actionable insights and recommendations. It is important that you have good analytical skills, are accurate and can work in a result-oriented way.

Digitization has been in full swing for years and this development continues unabated. Of course, all systems, websites, apps and other programs don't just come out of thin air. They are developed by programmers. Other commonly used terms for this profession include developer and software developers. Programmers can be divided into two groups, namely: Front-end Developers and Back-end Developers.
The Front-end Developers are the programmers who provide the front end of, for example, an application or website. They develop the visible part for the user. It is a profession where you can express a lot of your creativity.

These are the parts that you, as a visitor, will not see, but will unconsciously address. In the blog Ask the expert, Lead Back-end Developer Rob Janssen explains what the life of a Back-end Developer looks like.
