Jaron Kimpe

Senior Software Consultant

Lichtervelde, Belgium

Profile

A seasoned full stack developer who bridges the gap between technical excellence and business value. With a foundation in .NET, Azure, and modern web frameworks, I bring a pragmatic approach to software development — understanding that the best solution isn't always the most technically sophisticated one, but the one that delivers real value. Currently pursuing a Postgraduate in Business Management at Vives Brugge to deepen my understanding of the commercial side of technology. This dual perspective allows me to engage meaningfully with stakeholders, translating business needs into maintainable solutions while keeping an eye on what truly matters: delivering results.
