Pieter Knops
Data Scientist
With a Double Master’s degree of Mathematical Sciences and Computing Science at Utrecht University, Pieter has a strong foundation in Scientific Computing, Algorithmic Data Analysis, Algorithmic Optimization and Operations Research.
Already from the beginning of his studies, he has always been looking for relevant projects to apply his knowledge and skills to, and solve challenging real-life problems.
He started at Energyworx during his studies; a new chapter filled with challenges in the important and innovative field of energy data solutions.
As personal goal he has to show what amazing things you can learn from data, and what process optimizations are possible in making energy production, delivery and consumption more efficient.
His goal-oriented attitude is also clearly visible in sports: Running marathons and finishing multiple ultra-cycling events.
In his free time, Pieter has tought himself to play the piano and how to manage beehives, which he already is doing from an age of 12.
Pieter is filled with positive energy, and has a strong willingness to take on challenges and learn new things. He loves working in an inspiring and motivated team.
