About

The founder and operator.

  • Hey, I'm Daniel van Waas

    Project Engineer and Digital Tool Educator.

    Origin

    At a young age, I learned to weld steel constructions and in 2012 I successfully graduated as a mechanical engineer. After that I was motivated to explore the world and had a 1.5-year-long adventure in New Zealand where I travelled and played rugby.

    University

    In 2014 I returned to the Netherlands to go back to university to study project management. After earning my degree, I worked for an established greenhouse technology provider as a project manager and designer, where I was involved in large, high-tech irrigation projects.

    New Zealand

    Despite this being meaningful work and that life was comfortable, I knew this wasn’t “it”. I wanted to move out of the environment I grew up in, to break the rhythm and explore new things. I packed my suitcase and returned to New Zealand in 2019. It was a life reset. I lived and worked in New Zealand for 5 years and I now have a Permanent Resident Visa.

    What I'm doing now

    Now I'm back in the Netherlands, self-employed, helping small to medium-sized installation businesses in the horticulture and agriculture industries overcome technical challenges in their operations by assisting where I can to repeatedly install quality systems for their customers.

    Experience

    With over 10 years of experience in project management and irrigation systems engineering, working on large six-figure projects, coupled with 16 years of expertise in CAD design software, I managed to build a strong technical foundation. Reach out and let's see if we can work together.
