A drive to share knowledge

PSMWork, IT Consulting

My name is Peter Smits and I’m an independent IT consultant with a solid foundation in software engineering, who’s worked for 25 years through 5 consulting companies, on many international projects, completing every aspect of the entire software development life cycle. This work required me to be flexible, open-minded and have the all the consulting and management skills that a client needs to get the job done successfully.

Over the years, I’ve climbed up the ladder from developing and designing (enterprise) applications and their integrations, to testing and incident management, to team leading and technical project management. A solid foundation in software engineering and the ability to use that knowledge in different environments have led to invaluable experience on utilities, telco billing, CRM and help desk systems and their integrations.

I’ve always striven to understand the customers’ business processes, requirements and their underlying concepts in-depth to be able to design and implement them in the best possible way in reusable solutions. These projects took place all over the world and helped me gain a wonderful insight in different cultures and customs and how to use that to successfully complete and lead a project.

In addition to all the software developed, I’ve been particularly pleased that a lot of work was done on quality assurance through testing, reporting and incident management. Being another side of the same coin of software development, the difference in thinking is what helped me to constantly improve my work and create opportunities to share the results of these derived deliverables with others.

Key skills:
● Conceptual thinker with an analytical mind for process optimization
● Comprehensive knowledge of metering, billing, CRM and help desk processes and applications.
● Software design, both functional and technical.
● Oracle database design, performance optimization and reporting.
● Experienced in programming, particularly PL/SQL and VBA.
● Native Dutch with excellent spoken and written English and conversational German.
● Effective team player with good interpersonal skills.
● Two and a half decades of experience

After having worked in the IT Industry for over 2 decades, mainly as consultant in all its forms, it was time for an eventful sabbatical leave to explore the world, acquire new skills and enjoy life. With the batteries recharged, I’ve started the next 20 years. For any questions or offers, please contact me using the contact form or the details below.
