Joost Cassee

Joost and I work together on an innovative, politically complex program at Rijkswaterstaat, Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure and Environment. I know Joost as a calm, attentive and thoughtful personality, being able to listen, understand and work with multidisciplinary teams. Joost is interested in innovations and follows the trends development on the ICT market. His expertise in Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment has been a key success factor to the program. I am really happy to have Joost in my team.

Joost has introduced the word ‘business value’ into our software development process and delivered upon it.

Joost is amongst the best I have met in my field so far. He knows how to drill down to the essence of things in a non-presumptuous and knowledgeable way, while leaving enough room for argumentation. He has an open mind, and is respectful to other opinions.

Few people know both software development and infrastructures like Joost. He is a systems thinker, innovative, without losing sight of the end goal.

My relationship with Joost Cassee has benefited me and my projects beyond expectation. The process that Joost advised on helped transform development teams to become more self-organizing, cross-functional and autonomous. Joost is a product thinker with an innovative and Agile mind-set. He has incredible knowledge and uses this in a respectful way to team members and other stakeholders.

Joost implemented a clear development process that supports a culture of delivering quality code and business value, and formed a productive, effective and loyal team.
