About

I am a self-taught software engineer from Göteborg, Sweden, with a profound interest in engineering and software development. I have gained experience in several areas since I started programming. These involve creating product searches for e-commerce websites, building data pipelines, and designing scalable payout systems capable of handling thousands of payouts simultaneously. In my spare time, I primarily read about technology, work on hobby projects, and explore new concepts within programming.

Education

  • High School, Summer 2018
    • System Developer, Varberg
    • Studied to be a system engineer but found the school’s teaching methods not aligned with my learning style. I often took the assignment and built it “my way,” meaning I did research and then built the solution.
