New Nexus
New Nexus
New Nexus is a Groningen-based IT consultancy and software development company with approximately 100 employees, operating primarily in Noord-Nederland.[1] In early 2026, Jan Wilmake pursued an Agile Analyst position within its Software Solutions team.[2]
Overview
New Nexus specialises in delivering custom software and data solutions to clients in regulated and complex domains, including healthcare and hospitals, pension systems, energy management platforms, library and cultural sector applications, and (semi-)government bodies.[1]
The company is divided into three practice areas: Data Solutions, Software Solutions, and Management & Consultancy.
Culture
- Values: vrijheid, vertrouwen, verantwoordelijkheid, betrokkenheid ("freedom, trust, responsibility, involvement")[1]
- New Nexus Academy – internal training and knowledge-sharing programme
- Motto: "Groeien door te delen" ("growing by sharing")
- Perks: workation policy, in-house gym, Buster Foodtruck, bar
The company finds projects for people rather than people for projects — a distinction Wilmake noted as indicative of strong cultural fit.[1]
Agile Analyst Role
Key methodologies relevant to the Agile Analyst position:[1]
Domain Driven Design (DDD)
Structuring software around the business domain's language (Ubiquitous Language, Bounded Contexts, Domain Events, Event Storming).
Behavior Driven Development (BDD)
Specifying behavior through Gherkin examples (Given/When/Then), co-authored by business, testing, and development stakeholders (the "Three Amigos"). Tools: Cucumber, SpecFlow, Behave.
Specification by Example (SbE)
Requirements defined through specific concrete examples rather than abstract statements; canonical reference is Specification by Example by Gojko Adzic.
SAFe (Scaled Agile Framework)
Enterprise scaling framework with Agile Release Trains (ARTs), Program Increment (PI) Planning, and a hierarchy of Epics → Features → Stories.
Wilmake's Application
Wilmake positioned himself as a technical analyst with deep AI/LLM experience, framing his value as the leverage of upstream problem definition and his ability to bridge technical and business domains in healthcare and government contexts.[1] [2]
His interview pitch: "I've spent years building complex systems for demanding clients, and I've noticed the highest-leverage work is always upstream — getting the problem definition right before a line of code is written."
