Software Developer in the engineering team building REDSA, an enterprise compliance platform supporting the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR). The platform is built with React and TypeScript on the frontend and .NET on the backend, running on Azure Container Apps with an event-driven architecture using Azure Service Bus, Azure Functions, Cosmos DB and Application Insights.

Owned the frontend application throughout the project, driving implementation, code quality and technical direction while collaborating closely with architects and backend developers. My primary work was React and TypeScript development, and I also contributed to backend functionality in .NET/C# together with the backend developers.

Improved software quality by writing and maintaining unit tests and Playwright end-to-end tests. Helped define testing scenarios for new functionality and guided QA by suggesting how different scenarios should be verified, collaborating during feature verification and bug investigations.

Contributed to improving GitHub workflows, repository governance, branch protection rules, code review and pull request quality, and CI/CD practices.

Used Azure Portal, Application Insights and Cosmos DB for production investigations, telemetry analysis, KQL-based log analysis and troubleshooting of event-driven integrations.

Helped drive the adoption of AI-driven software development within the project. Integrated GitHub Copilot into my daily development workflow and established repository-specific AI development practices that improved productivity and code consistency. Wrote repository-specific instructions and development guidelines, and established prompt engineering practices. Optimized AI workflows using repository configuration and RTK, improving developer productivity and code consistency.

Investigated complex production and development issues spanning frontend, backend, Azure services and event-driven integrations, collaborating with architects and backend developers to identify root causes and implement solutions.

Developing a resource planning system designed to improve usability and efficiency for cleaning companies. Focusing on frontend development to create a polished and user-friendly interface while contributing to backend functionality.

The frontend is built with React, utilizing Material UI components to ensure a modern and intuitive design. Auth0 is integrated for secure user authentication, providing a seamless login experience.

Collaborating on the backend to support the frontend's functionality, working with a PostgreSQL database and a REST API built in Express.js. Integrating with the Fortnox.se API to synchronize financial and operational data, combining it with internal records. Implementing WebSockets to enable real-time data updates, ensuring users always have access to accurate and current information. This approach prioritizes delivering a responsive and accessible system that streamlines workflows for end-users.

I worked as a frontend-focused fullstack developer to build a new framework for StepStone’s job board pages. We developed a scalable web solution for creating and managing job board pages across StepStone’s various brands, prioritizing performance, developer experience, and maintainability. My primary responsibilities included core frontend development, creating shared libraries, building UI components, managing integrations, and providing support to framework adopters. I also contributed to improving build tooling and implementing testing strategies to ensure code quality and reliability.

I worked as a fullstack developer with UI/UX Specialization for StepStone's emerging tech lab. We explored emerging technologies, including AR, VR, AI, and ML, to develop prototype products and services for the StepStone organization. I contributed to projects focused on building an ML-powered job search assistant, an AR-enhanced job search application, and AI-driven job recommendation systems.

Leveraged Figma to design and construct a web application prototype focused on sourcing solutions. Engaged in in-depth consultations with key stakeholders within the company to understand their specific needs and pain points. Conducted a thorough analysis of the existing solution to identify areas for improvement and innovation. Utilized these insights to create a user-centric prototype that effectively addressed the company's sourcing challenges, while also offering an intuitive and streamlined user experience.

Software developer and consultant across internal initiatives and customer projects, helping customers design, build and evolve software solutions.

Combine frontend engineering, fullstack development, UX and technical consulting depending on the project, with an eye on maintainable software, developer productivity and quality. Bring current engineering practices and better development workflows to the teams I work with.

Specialized in AI-driven software development using GitHub Copilot, prompt engineering and repository-specific engineering workflows, using these practices to improve development processes, engineering standards and team collaboration. Work with customers and cross-functional teams to turn business requirements into scalable, user-focused solutions.
