About me

My journey began with a deep-seated fascination for sound and recording, which unexpectedly steered my career towards software development over two decades ago. This path has allowed me to delve into the intricacies of software and its development, handling projects across various programming languages including Ruby, Elixir, Python, C#, Java, Haskell, Julia, and Rust.

My professional experiences are diverse, ranging from developing governmental Single Sign-On solutions to deploying networks for major mobile providers. These projects not only honed my technical skills but also enriched my understanding of complex, large-scale digital infrastructures.

Recent years have seen a fascinating convergence of my career in software development with my passions for signal processing and sound recording. This synergy has opened up innovative avenues for integrating sound synthesis with technology, particularly through analog synthesizers.

Beyond my professional pursuits, I find solace and inspiration in the natural surroundings of my home. Whether it’s a reflective night walk or an invigorating run, these moments are crucial for my creative recharge.

My artistic expressions extend beyond sound; I also engage in drawing and filmmaking. You can explore a selection of my artistic works, including sound compositions and visual art, on my personal website: jarra.nl.
