Simon Berggren

Initially, I collaborated with the CTO and Lead Architect to optimize IT solutions, focusing on mentorship and architectural improvements. Following CDON Group's acquisition of Fyndiq and the decision to merge platforms, my focus shifted to being a crucial pillar in this migration. Over the last two years, I developed essential features for the transition while ensuring legacy system stability. This involved deep debugging, Azure cloud architecture optimization, and cost analysis—driving significant operational efficiency. Towards the latter part of the assignment, I introduced AI tooling, prompt engineering, and automated workflows into development processes to accelerate legacy code analysis, streamline integrations, and increase overall delivery speed.

As Tech Lead, I architected and developed a mobile app improving lives for the hearing impaired. I was responsible for managing customer relations, stakeholders, integrations, and the development team. Simultaneously, I remained an integral part of the daily coding, ensuring the team progressed and focused on their tasks without interference. The solution operated in 5 regions with high cost efficiency & data integrity.

I was hired to conduct an investigation into StepStone's processes, APIs, and monitoring workflows. Over 4 weeks, I worked closely alongside senior developers to gather insights, understand pain points, and identify bottlenecks. This work resulted in a comprehensive report of recommended architectural and process improvements, which was presented to leadership to establish concrete technical roadmaps.

I advanced from Fullstack Developer to Scrum Master while building an internal customer service tool. I led sprint estimation and planning with key stakeholders and conducted end-of-sprint demos to showcase the team's progress and results.

As a Technical Lead on Geshdo’s Tech Excellence crew, I am responsible for developing our consultants' knowledge, skills, and career growth. As the Technical Lead in Gothenburg, I help drive Geshdo’s regional expansion by fostering engineering culture and conducting technical interviews. Simultaneously as a Senior IT Consultant, I help clients solve complex technical challenges in Cloud Architecture and performance optimization, while guiding engineering teams to work more efficiently.

Initially consulting as a SharePoint Developer, I identified the need for modernization and spearheaded the frontend re-architecture to React with microservices. This initiative reduced deployment time from 6 hours to zero downtime. My expertise led the React implementation, where I educated team members and managed planning and prioritization.

Developed a web application for modeling and simulation of dynamic systems, turning my graduation project into a prototype that became a core commercial product. Migrated the frontend to React/TypeScript and supported backend services in Node, Python, C#, and Java.

Tutored students in programming, data structures, and object-oriented design workshops, guiding problem-solving and assisting in workshop planning.
