• Backend services and APIs
• Simulation and data-driven engineering tools
• Computer vision and intelligent software systems
• Mobile apps with Flutter
• Cloud-native systems on AWS
• Developer tools and internal platforms

• SailRaceComputer - Sailing race computer project focused on real-time race support, navigation, and on-water decision making.
• FleetFlow - Real time fleet tracker for off-shore races for competitive advantage.
• Android Emulator - Systems-focused emulator work exploring Android runtime behavior, platform internals, and performance.
• Guppy - A raspbbery pi friendly server that connects to your boat and make every data available for smart boat implementations.

• Ship pragmatic solutions with room to evolve
• Keep systems simple, observable, and easy to extend
• Balance speed with production reliability
• Focus on strong fundamentals over unnecessary complexity

I enjoy turning ambitious ideas into reliable systems and am especially interested in scalable application design, platform engineering, and intelligent software that solves real operational problems.

I am always interested in thoughtful engineering work and practical projects with a clear real-world use case.
