Hi there!
I'm Martijn van der Veen (CV). Welcome to my homepage. This website features side-projects I've been working on and some articles I've written. It's like a weblog, but semantically structured around projects and relations, not just blog posts.
I'm currently working as a Senior Software Development Engineer at Amazon, with a focus on applied computer vision. In previous teams I worked on natural language processing (Alexa), big data (Finance), and a high-traffic Tier-1 production service (Retail). Before that, I co-founded Zazzy, bringing customisable products to the masses. I built a platform to customise or design professional products over a cup of coffee, produced in metals by 3D-printers.
I've also been involved with The Things Network.
My academic background is in AI and computer vision. I hold a master's degree in Computer Graphics, Vision and Imaging from University College London and a bachelor's degree in Artificial Intelligence from the University of Amsterdam, with some electives in Electrical Engineering at Delft University of Technology.
