Profile
31-year-old full stack software developer with 8 years of experience in modern web technologies, fintech, e-commerce solutions and API development. A programming language polyglot but with a strong preference for JavaScript/TypeScript.
I hold a bachelor's degree in software development from the IT University of Copenhagen and I'm a multimedia designer from The Copenhagen School of Design and Technology.
Backend
I have several years of experience with API and system integration development in different languages and frameworks. My current tool of the trade is Laravel, with experience in both Express and ASP.NET.
I typically work in completely containerized environments using Docker through the entire pipeline; from development to staging and finally to production. I strive for completely reproducible builds and zero-downtime deployments.
Frontend
I have a very deep understanding of accessible and semantic HTML and clean, structured CSS combined with advanced, interactive JavaScript to create usable and great experiences for both clients and end users.
I usually work with SSR frameworks like Nuxt for Vue or Next for React (this website is built with Next and Typescript) and have extensive experience working with modern JavaScript SPA/SSR/Jamstack development and tooling. For styling, I usually work with modular SCSS, styled-components or Tailwind.
I'm used to working directly with designers in collaborative tools like Figma and Sketch and are quite comfortable in Illustrator and Photoshop (and to a lesser extent Blender)
