Speaks code, ships product.

I bridge the gap between product vision and engineering execution. My opinion changes with new information.

Projects

Things I've built

Currently deep in agentic engineering.

Agentera

Skill Ecosystem

A skill ecosystem for autonomous software development. Provides structured, composable workflows — planning, execution, review, optimization — that turn LLM agents into reliable delivery systems with real guardrails.

Python OpenCode LLM

Vrida

Skill

An OpenCode skill that assembles single-file HTML rigs with controls, live preview, and copyable prompt output. Visually tweak design tokens, architecture diagrams, and document reviews.

OpenCode HTML5 TypeScript

LFG

Plugin

A workflow engine plugin for OpenCode that turns high-level objectives into deterministic delivery loops across research, planning, coding, review, and docs. Say "go build the feature" and get autonomous momentum with real guardrails.

OpenCode TypeScript SQLite

Finsliparn

MCP

An MCP server that turns single-shot LLM coding into a multi-attempt refinement loop. Runs the test suite after each iteration, feeds failures back as structured directives, and picks the best passing solution using git worktrees.

TypeScript Git

Spela

Desktop / TUI / CLI

A Linux gaming optimization tool that manages DLSS/DLL versions and per-game profiles for Steam/Proton games. Handles GPU/CPU tuning, HDR setup, and launch configuration.

Go Svelte Wails

Utforskarn

Desktop / Web

A local-first research tool for organizing topics into projects, with AI-powered auto-tagging and related-topic discovery. Write markdown notes, and an LLM analyzes them to surface connections you missed.

Svelte 5 Tailwind CSS

Signalspanarn

CLI / TUI

CLI and TUI that aggregates signals from Hacker News, GitHub, arXiv, Exa, and Kagi, then ranks and summarizes them so I can keep up with what's actually happening in AI without drowning in noise.

Python Textual SQLite

Tuta

CLI

A tiny CLI tool that plays synthesized notification tones for scripts and build pipelines. Each sound is designed around music theory principles — interval quality, pitch contour, waveform choice — so they're immediately recognizable without being annoying.

Go

Experience

15+ years building products

I am relentless about creating intuitive and simple products in complex technical environments, with users' needs at the forefront.

Systems thinking

Connects immediate decisions to long-term outcomes. Sees several steps ahead without losing sight of today.

Team enabler

Leads by enabling others — aligning teams toward a shared north star without needing formal authority.

Quick study

Active listener with high-bandwidth information intake. New concepts stick quickly.

Malmö

Senior Software Engineer, Data Sharing & Discovery

After a roughly 1.5-year stint in Operational Intelligence, I am back to building the Ingka Data Platform — now as a software engineer. A major internal reorganization split our previous domain into two: Platform Engineering (where I am now), and Technology Services (where Operational Intelligence went). My current focus is making data accessible, discoverable, and shareable across all of IKEA by designing and developing solutions for data products.
