Victor Gerbrands

Full Stack Developer | Growth Engineer

About

Started in growth marketing, but realized I prefer writing React components over writing ad copy. Transitioned to software development in 2020. Today, I bring both perspectives together as a growth-focused software engineer.

I'm a full stack developer with broad experience across Next.js, React, Node.js, Python, generative AI, product analytics, experimentation, and automation. In short: I build, launch, measure, and iterate.

I'm driven by curiosity, always learning and experimenting. My core values are freedom, independence, curiosity, authenticity and honesty, and I work hard to let those guide both my work and life.

When I'm not coding, you'll find me travelling in my campervan or mixing old school jungle, dub and house tunes.

My daily weapons of choice: TypeScript, Next.js, React, Medusa, Node.js, Postgres, Rudderstack, Vercel, AWS, OpenAI and Vercel AI SDK. However, I'm always interested in learning new tools and technologies.

Most of my work is open source and available on Github: @VariableVic
