02 / how i work

Principles over buzzwords

AI-first approach

AI is part of my engineering workflow from architecture to review — used deliberately, with the experience to know when not to trust it.

Product-oriented mindset

I ask the right questions upfront. Code only matters if it moves the product and the business.

Continuous improvement

I improve legacy code while shipping new features — leaving every codebase better than I found it.

03 / proof

Things I had impact on

04 / scaling up

Larger software projects

When a project outgrows a single pair of hands, I don’t pretend otherwise. For larger software projects I collaborate with a Polish/Ukrainian software partner — a trusted partnership of almost ten years.

Highly skilled engineers with great collaboration and communication skills, and me as your single point of contact who speaks both tech and business.

“As an engineering leader, Jonas drove initiatives that kept us reaching for smarter, state-of-the-art and long-lasting solutions. He was a fountain of ideas that kept things fresh and exciting — and always had an open ear, challenging input with the right questions to draw out even better ideas.”
