Meet Gijs – Our new Network consultant
This May, we’re excited to welcome Gijs to the QUBE team! He’s stepping into the role of Network consultant, and we thought it was the perfect time to get to know him a bit better.
Welcome to QUBE! Great to have you on board. So, tell us more about yourself.
I'm Gijs, 38 years young, married, and father to a 4-year-old daughter. We live in Vijfhuizen. What;s important to me? To create a stable and reliable IT infrastructure for our clients. At QUBE, I’ve started as a Network Consultant.
How did you get into IT?
IT has been in my DNA from a young age. What started with endlessly tinkering with PCs, installing Windows versions, and exploring the boundaries between hardware and software, grew into a passion that shaped my career.
My first experience with IT came while working in the customer service department of a vitamin webshop. My interest in IT quickly became apparent: the IT manager asked if I could assist with SQL queries, managing web content, and handling various IT issues. I grabbed that opportunity with both hands.
Through a large Managed Service Provider, I later specialized in the Microsoft Azure Cloud, with a strong focus on the infrastructure side. That technical deep dive, combined with my eagerness to learn and curious mindset, makes me feel right at home in complex IT environments where innovation is constant.
Why QUBE?
When QUBE came my way, it immediately felt right. The conversations were smooth, the connection was there from the start, and that feeling has only grown stronger since I began. I can now confidently say: this is a perfect match, then and now.
What can clients expect from you?
My top priority is to deliver a stable and reliable infrastructure for our clients.
Here’s what you can expect from me:
- SMART communication: clear, measurable, and goal-oriented
- A meaningful journey to (or within) the Cloud, together with you
- Enthusiasm and passion for the field — and for collaboration
And outside of work?
In my free time, I enjoy doing fun activities with friends and family. Whether it’s having drinks, a board game night, or a spontaneous outing, that’s what makes me happy.
I also love being in the kitchen, as cooking is one of my favorite hobbies. Always up for a chat about sports (think: Formula 1, Ajax, UFC, and plenty of other sports).
