Welcome to Pieter Software

The idea behind Pieter Software is to start forming an identity within the community and gaining experience in the ever changing world of Software Engineering.

The story behind the Name

The name 'Pieter Software' and slogan 'Rock Solid' is a little wordplay with the meaning of my preferred name 'Pieter' and my official names 'Johannes Petrus'.

Pieter finds its roots in the Latin name Petrus, and Petrus originates from the Greek word for Rock.

The slogan further highlights my drive to write software that is rock solid on its foundation of good software principles, design, reliability and, stability.

About

At the moment, I am an individual trading as Pieter Software.

Pieter Smit

Software Engineer

In 2012 I completed my Master's degree in Computer and Electronic Engineering at the North-West University.

I started my career as a software engineer in January 2013 and quickly realised that the field of software engineering and development is ever growing and evolving. There is always something new to learn.

I have a love for all things software and electronic. By trade, I am a Software Engineer. Occasionally I keep myself busy with a hobby electronics project. With the rest of my spare time, I keep myself busy with anything from website development to writing full-stack software for various platforms.
