Work History

Development Engineer

Skylotec Nordic AB
06.2023 - Current
  • As a development engineer at Skylotec, my work tasks range from idea generation and prototyping to homologation, industrialization, and product maintenance. My focus is always on continuous improvement of products and processes to facilitate my colleagues and myself, but also to assure high quality in our products. The combination of analytical and hands-on problem-solving suits me very well.
  • Tools: SolidWorks, Office.

Test Specialist

Laird Thermal Systems
01.2019 - 06.2023
  • At Laird, I worked in close cooperation with my colleagues on joint projects, as well as running my own. Over the years, I contributed to new and improved test methods and tools, as well as raising the company's level of expertise within the testing field. I learned a lot about electronics and programming, but also to find the pragmatic approach, as I often was on a tight budget.
  • Tools: LabVIEW, SolidWorks, Office

Design Engineer

Cross Competence
01.2018 - 01.2019
  • In my role as Task Leader at the Special Vehicles Department, I put together an ECU for controlling a new type of high-end infotainment system. The project had high attention, a large budget, and a short time to market. During this period, I really learned to navigate through the organization, as low volumes and short project times are out of the ordinary way of working.
  • Tools: KDP, Teamcenter, Catia V5.

Test Engineer

Cross Competence
01.2017 - 01.2018
  • As a software test engineer at CPAC Systems, I worked with quality assurance through regression testing, the development of test cases, as well as reviewing and updating software requirements. Working with software in this way was new to me at the time I started the assignment. Thus, I learned a lot, not the least of which is that finding errors can be a good thing.
  • Tools: PCAN, Engineering Tool, LabVIEW, Jenkins, Jira, TortoiseGit.

Design Engineer

ÅF Technology
01.2014 - 01.2017
  • During my time at ÅF, I had two long-term assignments as a design engineer. At Volvo Cars, my job was to develop the EGR system for the new generation diesel engines, and to maintain the existing product portfolio. Thanks to my experience from working with EGR, I later had the opportunity to drive the development of a new kind of flow measurement sensor for Volvo Powertrain (Trucks). The learning curve during these years was high, and I quickly took on a large responsibility.
  • Tools: Catia V5, Teamcenter, Kola, KDP.
