Dirk

Wordpress Developer & Server Administrator

Dirk is our second in-house chief nerd who will come up with brilliant coding ideas whenever his other job as a single Dad affords him a break. He has an engineering degree and has been self-employed for many years, supporting small/medium companies in IT and providing general PC, server, and hardware maintenance. Before the birth of his son in 2011, Dirk was a dedicated Billiards Pool player, having spent many years in a league and developing considerable skill in the sport. When his son arrived, Dirk decided to end his self-employment and took a job for an SEO-related company and, later, a design company where he built websites with the Open-Source Drupal CMS.

Now a happy member of the Bekatec Online Solutions team living in Dortmund, Dirk administers the servers and provides comprehensive support to the WordPress team. While his love of playing pool is still alive and well (not to mention his dedicated two-decade-long love of Linux), he adoringly shares that now he’s “playing in the league of bringing up my son.”
