Head of New Products
bunq

Tom’s mission is simple: build products that solve real problems for real people. With a background in computer science and psychology, he brings a human lens to everything he designs - fast, simple, and intuitive. Whether it’s making investing as easy as splitting a bill or managing money on the go, he believes that if it takes more than three taps, it’s not done right.

Tom joined bunq in 2018 and was hooked from the start - spotting a bug during his first day, fixing it, and shipping the update that same afternoon. After a brief stint away exploring other roles, he returned to bunq for one reason: momentum. A user-first approach means fast decisions, no red tape, and problems get solved - not shelved.

A frequent traveler himself, many of bunq’s features reflect his own experiences, shaped by moments on the road where he thought, “This should be easier.” In his role as Head of New Products, he focuses on building features that empower bunq users to bank (and live) seamlessly, wherever life takes them.
