I'm a Stockholm-based computer scientist and entrepreneur, passionate about developing real, groundbreaking technology. My current focus: agentic software engineering.
As CEO and CTPO at Softwarify® AB, currently in stealth mode, I'm building a human-AI collaboration platform where both human and AI engineers build large-scale software together. I'm also the CTO at Co-Cart AB, where I lead the technology behind Condé Nast's VETTE. Previously, I served as CTO at Spotin AB, where I led the technology behind the product that was ultimately acquired by Condé Nast.
I hold a PhD in Computer Science (Machine Learning) from Karlstad University and conducted my postdoctoral research at KTH Royal Institute of Technology in collaboration with AstraZeneca. My research spans digital twinning, 3D Gaussian splatting, computer vision, and ML-driven optimization of cloud-native systems - with open-source tools like PerfCam, PerfSim, NFV-Inspector, and sfc-stress that are used in industry.
I’ve published more than a couple of dozen peer-reviewed scientific articles in top journals and conferences, including IEEE Transactions, with over 260 citations and several awards for my work. I’ve also spent time researching at Ericsson, focusing on microservice performance and optimization for 5G Core systems, and led teams in roles like Tech Lead and Solution Architect at RM Innovation, where I guided agile transformations and designed cutting-edge B2B2C solutions. I was also the founder of Olam Tech, where we served multiple customers worldwide, building innovative solutions like home automation systems, SaaS/PaaS solutions for online project assessments, and a complete online shopping solution, among many others. Throughout my career, I’ve built, optimized, and led teams through projects that blend research with real-world impact.
Academia and industry, interleaved by design: every research result pushed toward production, every product informed by research.
Leading the technology behind Condé Nast's VETTE platform. Proud that Spotin has been acquired by Condé Nast: what was Spotin will now be used to power VETTE.
