Background
I'm Berend Verstegen, a freelance developer based in the Netherlands. I've been building software professionally for years - from internal tooling to full SaaS products. I started coding as a side hustle. Now I build full products.
Bear Software is my one-person business. I work directly with founders, small businesses, and teams who need a developer they can actually talk to. No account managers. No hand-offs. Just solid work.
“Direct collaboration creates better products and fewer wrong turns.”
Working style
- Clear scope and straight answers before code is written
- Focused delivery without unnecessary layers or delays
- Modern tools and maintainable code from day one
