Software & DevOps Engineer, Sys Admin

About

Hi! I’m a passionate software engineer and DevOps enthusiast from Sweden. At 24 years old, I find myself deeply involved in the world of technology and constantly exploring new ways to innovate and improve processes.

During the day, I focus on software engineering, developing robust and efficient solutions, while at night, I dive into the world of embedded development, building and tinkering with hardware-driven projects. I love working across different tech stacks and always strive to bridge the gap between software and infrastructure, ensuring seamless integration and performance.

Being a DevOps engineer, I’m particularly passionate about automation, continuous integration, and optimizing workflows to enhance productivity and system reliability. Whether it’s automating infrastructure or fine-tuning a low-level embedded system, I’m always eager to learn, experiment, and push the limits of what’s possible.

In addition to my professional work, I am a strong believer in the power of open source. I love contributing to open-source projects and being part of communities that are dedicated to building better software for everyone. Whether it’s submitting bug fixes, improving documentation, or collaborating on new features, I see open-source as an incredible way to learn, share knowledge, and help drive the tech industry forward. I always try to give back to the community that has given me so much!

I sometimes write about projects and thoughts, see the Posts if you’re interested.
