Auke Swart is a Director of IT and Co-Owner at Hoe-Opleidingen. He possess expertise in microsoft sql server, xslt, xml, soap, asp.net and 15 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "Auke was a sharp and open procurement manager with whom I worked very pleasantly , but negotiated very sharp. His sharp technical and commercial skills kept me on top of my game ,but he made me work hard for my money as well." and "Auke must be one of the most productive developers I know. He comes up with a plan in absolutely no time, and follows it up with an (in most cases almost production-ready) prototype just as fast. His solutions are often unorthodox, but usually extremely logical when you examine them more closely. If he didn't invent the term 'defensive programming', he at least co-authored it! In short: if it can be done, Auke can do it, speedily and reliably."
