About Wesley

I build software and run my own business.

I’m Wesley Abbenhuis. Software architect, entrepreneur and founder of Wabber B.V.

Around the age of nine, I was already programming in MS-DOS and making my own small games. At about ten, I was studying the thick MS-DOS Bible. That curiosity about how technology works has stayed with me.

Since 2009, I have worked full-time as an application developer, building software and infrastructure. Since 2018, my team at Wabber and I have been building business-critical systems for organisations that depend on reliable technology.

I understand technology, as well as investments, people, customers, risk and business continuity.

That is why I consider what makes business sense alongside what is technically possible.

background

From MS-DOS to my own software company.

My interest in technology started at home, with MS-DOS and small games I made myself. Since 2009, I have built applications full-time. Along the way, I also learned what it means to be responsible for a team, customers and my own business.

From day-to-day operations to my own software company

  1. As a child

    MS-DOS, small games and the MS-DOS Bible

    Around nine, I was already programming and making small games. At about ten, I studied the MS-DOS Bible. I wanted to understand how things worked and make things myself.

  2. 2000-2009

    McDonald’s, operations and management

    Before moving into software development full-time, I gained experience with day-to-day operations: orders, schedules, equipment and leading and training employees.

  3. 2009-2013

    Software engineer at NovaRage Internet Applications

    Technical design and development of custom websites and web applications for small and medium-sized businesses, designers and design agencies.

  4. 2013-2018

  5. Since 2018

    Founder and owner of Wabber B.V.

    My own software company, combining technical and entrepreneurial responsibilities. With the team, I build and operate business-critical software, tracking systems and private AI.

Product responsibility too

Through DiceXQ, I help build software businesses as a technical co-owner. I have also been involved as director and owner of ABBR-App since 2023. Since 2025, I have been product owner of Digitaal Aanmelden. This means considering the product’s value to organisations and users as well as its code.
