I'm a tech lead and developer, happiest taking an idea from a blank page to production-ready functionality — alongside a team that owns the result.

In brief
For over a decade I've built systems for the Norwegian Police, NAV and Mattilsynet, and for private-sector clients like Wallenius Wilhelmsen and Pandion Energy — some in the public cloud, some on machines the client runs themselves. Today I lead the technology of a new product team at the Norwegian Police, building the next generation of interview tooling on locally hosted language models under strict security and privacy requirements.
I shape the architecture, choose the technology and write a lot of the code myself. I like being close to the detail, and I have opinions about design and user experience too.
Since 2022 I've carried people-management responsibility at Computas. That part of the job is mostly mentoring — following developers over time, helping them grow, and taking new ones in as the teams expand.
And I like the craft. Most weeks I'm reading up on or testing something new, and some of it usually finds its way into the day job afterwards.
Politiet (PIT)
Tech lead · Justice
Tech lead of a new product team building the Norwegian Police's next solution for planning, conducting and processing interviews.
Politiet (PIT)
Full-stack · Justice
Full-stack delivery across web, mobile and backend in one of the Norwegian Police's first cross-functional product teams — modernising evidence-seizure handling.
Wallenius Wilhelmsen
Tech lead · Logistics
Helped stand up a brand-new logistics platform for global vehicle logistics — technology choices, data modelling and the developer platform on GCP. Partway through, the group took a strategic decision to swap to Azure and C#, and I saw the transition through. My last stretch there went on onboarding the new team and getting them up to speed, before I moved on to a new assignment.
NAV
Full-stack · Welfare tech
New tooling for the ~1,000 providers who help people into or back to work — part of the effort to phase out NAV's ageing Arena system. The goal was to keep communication between the providers and NAV close, so that caseworkers and providers alike could follow each person up as well as possible. React micro-frontends inside NAV's own surfaces, and Kotlin services on GCP talking to the rest of NAV over REST, GraphQL and Kafka. Universal design was a requirement throughout.
Pandion Energy
Tech architect · Oil & gas
Pandion Energy wanted more value out of their geological and geophysical data, working with Computas and Google. Their owner Kerogen Capital had picked them as the first pilot for a global oil and gas data platform. The platform pulls data together from many sources, so the geologists can read across it and spot patterns they would otherwise miss. I was technical architect on a team spanning new graduates to experienced data scientists, and owned the portal they worked in day to day. During the pandemic the initiative had to scale down and was eventually put on ice, and I was the last developer left on the team.
Politiet (PIT)
Developer · Justice
Three projects in the criminal-case chain: crime reports filed electronically into the police case system, case documents sent to the courts over Altinn, and maintenance of BL — the system 17,000 officers and prosecutors work in daily. I worked full-stack in Java, Spring Boot and Angular, and helped move the first services onto the police's new Kubernetes platform while they still had to run on the old one.
Mattilsynet
Developer · Public sector
My first assignment out of university: developing and maintaining MATS, the Norwegian Food Safety Authority's inspection case system, which replaced around 30 older systems. Java and Oracle underneath, Angular on the newer surfaces — and test-driven development as a habit from there on. From 2015 I was team lead for one of the development teams.
Let's build something worth building.
