Staff-level frontend/system engineer based in Sweden. 20+ years experience shipping performance-critical, real-time, and composable interfaces in production. Previous work includes:

• Custom poker clients and in-house game engines (Gamesys, OpenBet)

• Embedded media platforms (Xperi/TiVo smart TVs)

• Large-scale e-commerce widgets (Stylitics, tens of millions of daily hits)

• LLM-assisted pipelines and tooling (CMS ingestion, visual diffing, media automation)

Strengths include UI architecture, latency-aware design, composable systems, fast iteration, and taking projects from prototype to production with minimal overhead.

Stack/tools: React, TypeScript, Web Components, Canvas/WebGL, ClojureScript Tauri, SQLite, Payload CMS, ffmpeg, Cloudflare Workers GitHub Actions, Playwright, Codex-based AI workflows

Recent personal projects:

• Socken : local-first genealogy tool (Tauri + SQLite + GEDCOM)

I have 4 Years of Experience as a SWE. I mostly worked with a TypeScript stack for work building Shopify platinum apps, and I've made and contributed to dozens of Rust projects (sudo-rs, nptd-rs, zed, uutils, firefox).

I'm also open to exploring new fields. I don't work well in an assembly line ticket processing setup, as this does not excite me in any way. I love diving deep into topics like memory management, architecture, solutioning and all that jazz!

Also willing to learn new technologies. Current favorite is Ruby on Rails

I'm also available as extra man-power for cool (F)OSS projects I can help out with
