Meet Maartje, our Senior Process Development Engineer

article

Maartje van der Zalm feels “right at home” within the operations team as Senior Process Development Engineer.

"Witnessing the transformation of the idea from paper to product, with contributions from all of us, is truly fantastic.”

With a background in chemical technology and material science, Maartje brings her expertise to the forefront of innovative medical technology. Joining Salvia was a deliberate choice for Maartje. The freedom it provided, along with the welcoming and vibrant startup teamenvironment, deeply resonated with her. But "you must like a bit of chaos," she admits with a laugh.This role allows her to employ both her technical expertise and creative flair in finding solutions that benefit society and humanity. This phase of development excites her, as she witnesses the transformation of innovative concepts into tangible medical technology.

Purpose

But there's more to Maartje's journey than just a fulfilling career. For 25 years, she battled migraines and cluster headaches,enduring a long quest for proper treatment. That personal connection (and her extensive background in chemistry and technology) led her to Salvia, where she found purpose in helping patients facing similar challenges.

"I am truly leaving my mark here," she affirms. "Recently, we treated our first patient, and witnessing the improvement the patient is experiencing shows how we're really making a real difference."

Page Title (H1)

Header (H2)

A subheading or chapter heading (H3)

Introductory text or a first paragraph of information on this subject. Write as naturally as possible and be nice and specific. If necessary, use AI software to help you get started, but definitely don't use it one-on-one. Search engines can penalize AI content.

Subheading (H4)

Here too there is more than enough room for a good story, an interesting article or background information. If necessary, use a summary:

  • a summary is clear
  • one can see the benefits or features at a glance
  • also use search terms if necessary

Another topic (H3)

Another subheading (H4)

Do not use a Title Header (H1), but use an H2 Header instead. An H1 is actually a title of the page and may only appear once on a web page. The H2 is a kind of chapter and the other headers (H3 to H6) are subheadings and subheadings within the chapter. The order is important for the readability of visitors and search engines.

  1. a summary is clear
  2. one can see the benefits or features at a glance
  3. also use search terms if necessary

This way everything remains easy to read and understandable for the reader. People can also scroll directly to the topic they are interested in.

Paragraph heading style (H5)

This is another example of a heading. The headings H5 and H6 are usually used as paragraph headings, each with their own style.

Paragraph heading style (H6)

In the editor you can really see a difference in font size of all headers, but on the live website they have their own style.

Other options

Use a "quote". That looks like this:

This is a quote!

You can also put texts in bold, italic, etc.
Of maak een link naar een andere pagina of website.
And finally, you can also create Superscript(1) and Subscript(2) text.
