Embedded software engineer turned entrepreneur. I build everything from bare-metal firmware and cryptography tools to self-hosted cloud infrastructure.

About

I'm an embedded software engineer and entrepreneur based in Sweden. I studied Electrical Engineering and spent several years building embedded systems professionally - hardware drivers, Bluetooth stacks, mesh communication protocols, and the build infrastructure around them.

Today I work on my own projects. My tools are C, Rust, and Python. I care about security, simplicity, and owning my stack - from bare-metal firmware to the cloud infrastructure that runs this site. When I'm not at a keyboard I'm usually in the workshop - woodworking, metalworking, leatherworking, or measuring things that probably don't need measuring.
