Trellance Jan 2019 - September 2019

I worked with David in a fast paced, chaotic start up company. He did a great deal to assist with the training and establishment of our teams as we transitioned through an acquisition. We worked well together, and I would highly recommend his skill sets. I look back fondly on our discussions which were productive and pointed. David always provided counter thoughts that were useful, and he has a refreshing communication style that won’t leave you guessing. He also has the ability to use his technical knowledge to speak at a high level down to the detail.

Trellance Jan 2019 - July 2019

David brings a wide array of skills to the table, which is backed up by creativity and passion. He was originally brought in to fulfill a BA role, but it was soon clear that his knowledge of the SDLC and the Atlassian suite of products would add more value to an existing SDLC project. David played a critical role in process design, technical tool integration and documentation, which resulted in a very successful SDLC implementation! It was a pleasure to work with David.

David is one of the most positive people I've had a chance to work with. He's smart and loves a good challenge. David is quick to dive in and learn new technologies he's not worked with previously. He's never one to say no to a business problem and works on it until he finds the solution. Dave is also very innovative and creative, both personally and professionally.

Catholic Charities: October 2016

David came to Catholic Charities seeking volunteer opportunities, and we ended up offering him a contract position as a Business Analyst. David was a significant help in implementing the Atlassian Suite at Catholic Charities. He gathered all of the requirements, documented workflows, and established dozens of templates that other PM and BA resources in our department could use for posterity. He has a strong attention to detail and a commitment to delivering quality results. In addition to his role as a BA, David served as a strong technical resource. He wrote a few batch Java applications to analyze report usage across our enterprise BI platform, created recommendations for an incident management system, and provided countless data and workflow models for both IT and our end-users. I would absolutely recommend David for either a software development or technical analysis role.

"David Bekkerus has an outstanding technical mind. He was assigned to replace me in a very difficult development environment. He became familiar with the systems very quickly and was able to give recommendations on system design and updates based on his experience. David was able to use that knowledge to make some improvements on the system that I did not even think about doing. David also is very outgoing and able to speak his mind without hesitation."
