Experience

Software and platform engineer with 18+ years of experience, the last decade focused on cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, and platform engineering. I enjoy applying software engineering discipline to infrastructure — treating platforms as products that enable development teams.


Work & Consulting

Accelerate @ Iver — Platform Engineer (Consultant)

2025–present · Client: Pilotfish AB

Migrating a production microservices platform from IBM Cloud to AWS — first customer successfully migrated.

  • Moved container platform from Docker Swarm to Kubernetes (EKS)
  • Cloud infrastructure built and deployed with CDK (Java)
  • Championed and implemented GitOps for Kubernetes using ArgoCD (Google IDP + Cognito)
  • Introduced Helm Charts to move configuration into testable, packaged application artifacts
  • Championed reduction of deployment cadence from two weeks to one week, driving cross-team alignment and organization-wide adoption
  • Establishing infrastructure test pipelines to improve release safety and automation (CDK + ArgoCD + Chainsaw)

Synkzone AB — Developer / COO

2020–2025

Joined as developer; promoted to COO as platform and operations responsibilities expanded. Sole owner of infrastructure for a secure file-sharing SaaS product — designed, built, and operated end-to-end.

  • Evolved the platform from manually deployed VPS instances to a Kubernetes-based setup with services across 4 Nordic providers (Glesys, Safespring, Cleura, ElastX) — growing from ~10 to ~90 customers and 300+ running services
  • Championed migration to Kubernetes internally — navigating organizational resistance to drive adoption across the team
  • Deliberately limited to Nordic providers for data sovereignty and GDPR compliance
  • Built and operated self-hosted CI/CD in Kubernetes — Gitea, Argo Workflows, Dagger
  • Introduced full observability stack — Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, AlertManager

Acorn Technology — Solution Architect (Consultant)

2019–2020 · Client: Wireless Car / Volkswagen (Project Cyclone)

Served as solution architect on a 6-person consulting team (SM, PO, 4 devs) commissioned by Volkswagen/Wireless Car. Greenfield opportunity — took full ownership of cloud architecture on Azure, pivoting from the original AWS brief, and delivered a microservices platform with CI/CD, high availability, and security compliance from scratch. Followed by two shorter engagements for the same team: an Azure IoT platform study and a brief stint at CEVT/Geely.

Etraveli AB — Developer / Platform Engineer

2015–2019

Started as a backend developer on large-scale travel booking systems; moved by choice into a newly formed platform team covering architecture, CI/CD, and incident response.

  • Evaluated container orchestration options (Kubernetes, Swarm) as the org explored cloud migration
  • Initiated and drove running databases in Docker to solve scaling up the number of available test environments
  • Championed and delivered the first microservice (strangler pattern) with a colleague — opening the path away from the legacy monolith
