We would like to announce that you can now apply for the 8th General Board of D.S.A. Pattern. 🎉 But why would you want to take on such a role?

A board year is the perfect opportunity to learn new skills that you would likely not learn during your studies. It comes with lots of personal development, growth and learning (like planning, how to lead and expand your network). 💼 Next to all serious stuff, you will also have lots of fun, join amazing parties and make friends for life. 💃🏼🕺🏽 And not to mention that it looks great on your resume! 📃 It doesn’t matter if you haven’t been very involved with the association before, what matters is that you are eager to learn and take on a challenge! 💪🏽

In order to apply for a board position, you'll have to send an email to applications@dsapattern.nl containing your resume and a motivational letter. In order for the Application Committee to take your wishes into account, we ask you to note your two preferences with short motivations as well as the two functions you would not like to take on during your board year (if applicable). You can also state what you would like to learn and get out of such an opportunity. Note that the deadline to submit your application is March 24 at 23:59!

We are excited to hear from you, and don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions regarding the functions or the application procedure! 🤩

Love, Board 7 💙

Theme: 11/11 (Carnival)

Since 11/11 falls on the weekend, and we are located in the southern part of the Netherlands, we cannot afford to miss out on this celebration. Therefore, we have decided to host a themed party inspired by carnival traditions, and it won't just be an evening affair—it will be a full-day extravaganza! Our festivities will commence at 11:11 AM on Saturday.

In the spirit of carnival, where a prince or princess often leads the celebrations, we are thrilled to announce that we will inaugurate our very own "Pattern Prince and Princess" for this special occasion.

You have the unique opportunity to cast your vote and decide who among us will take on the role of prince or princess. During the weekend, your votes will determine the official leaders who will guide us through the 11/11 festivities!

Now, what exactly is 11/11? It's the day when the carnival season kicks off—a bit like the New Year's Day of the carnival world.

Join us on this exciting day of fun, costumes, and revelry as we celebrate the beginning of the carnival season in style! Let's make it a day to remember.

De AIVD gesloten? Helaas, dat beeld leeft nog altijd. De AIVD is open waar het kan en gesloten als het moet. Wij beschermen de democratie tegen nationale en internationale dreigingen, zodat we in vrijheid kunnen leven. Wij delen gericht kennis en informatie die samenwerkingspartners en belangendragers aanzet tot zelfstandig handelen. Daarnaast brengt de AIVD gekende en ongekende dreiging in kaart en rapporteert daar over aan partners. Er bestaan veel misverstanden en mythes over ons werk. Welke bevoegdheden we mogen inzetten om ons werk uit te voeren bijvoorbeeld en wanneer wij dit zullen doen. Op 21 maart nemen wij jullie mee in de (soms) gesloten wereld van de Algemene Inlichtingen en- Veiligheidsdienst.

Het is niet toegestaan om een laptop, horloge of andere electronica mee te nemen. Telefoons mogen niet mee naar binnen, maar kunnen wel in een kluisje achtergelaten worden bij het kantoor van de AIVD.

Inschrijvingen sluiten op 17 maart om 16:00 en er zijn maar een gelimiteerde hoeveelheid plekken!

Zorg dat je om 10:30 aanwezig bent bij het hoofdkantoor, zodat de AIVD genoeg tijd heeft voor security checks!

Data Science Case a.s.r. – Classify interest rates of government bonds as reliable.

To answer this key question, you will dive into the data of the German government's bonds interest rates over the last ten years. What are the features of a reliable interest rate? How do you visualize the behavior of an interest rate? How do you effectively classify interest rates?

So, this is your task: find reliable interest rates! You can pick the tooling you want. The team with the best analysis wins this competition!

During the in-house day Jorg van Heesch will elaborate on the data science field within Prodrive Technologies.

Jorg: “The inhouse day is split into two parts. The first part will be a presentation about data science in Prodrive, tailored to the data science of the future. Since our field is very novel, I will shed some light of what we believe the future will holds for young talent. Free career advice! The second part involves a tour in our state-of-the-art factory. We will show our automated production lines, automated guided vehicles, and logistic automations. I hope to see you all.”

About Jorg

Jorg van Heesch has a background in manufacturing systems engineering and has been working for two years as a data engineer at Prodrive Technologies. He oversees the implementation of data analytics applications within the manufacturing domain and works closely together with all stakeholders.

About Prodrive Technologies

In close collaboration with our customers, we design and manufacture complex electronic and mechatronic solutions in-house, for which we are responsible for both the hardware and software. One of our main goals is to build a “lights-out-factory” that can manufacture products fully autonomously 24/7, without requiring any human intervention.

Our employees always wanted to be an inventor. At Prodrive Technologies you get the opportunity to fulfill your dream. Engineering and continuously improving products and processes, and pushing the status quo.

Naturally, our success, growth, and results have not just fallen into our laps. We've all given our best shot to get to where we are because we're crazy about technology and the challenges presented by technological and business developments.

Anyone who becomes a Prodriver must be able to meet those challenges, take initiative and take on risks, seize opportunities and persevere to the very last moment, which may sometimes fall outside office hours.

In short, our work is our passion. We take it very seriously. If you feel the same way, you could go a long way as a Prodriver - there's plenty of scope here.

The full schedule for the day will look like this :

09:30 – 09:45 : Check-in

09:45 – 10:00 : General introduction to Prodrive

10:00 – 10:30 : Technical presentation

10:30 – 11:30 : Company tour

11:45 : Closing

By attending the in-house day, you will earn 2 MyFuture Activities. During the in-house day, Prodrive will also provide some snacks and drinks.
