About me
Kobe De Maeseneire

I'm a product-minded software and AI engineer from Antwerp, Belgium. What drives me is not just writing code, but building things that solve real problems for real people.
I often describe myself as a developer, but the work that gives me the most energy sits at the intersection of software, product and business. I like asking whether there is a real problem, who would pay for it, how users would find it, and what needs to be true for it to scale.
That mindset shows up in the way I work. I enjoy building things from scratch, talking to users, shaping features, making decisions and seeing the impact of what gets shipped. I learn fastest by doing: start with an idea, build, hit the hard parts, and improve through real feedback.
My strongest instinct is ownership. I am at my best when I can be involved in the full journey: idea validation, customer conversations, product direction, technical architecture, implementation and launch.

How I work
Product-first

Ownership
I like taking responsibility for the full path from idea to shipped product.
Build to learn
I move quickly, test assumptions in the real world and improve from feedback.
