I\'ve built video games using Unity (C#) and Unreal Engine (C++). I also have experience with Python and Elixir. I have experience with Heroku, fly.io, AWS, Google Cloud, Docker and serverless tech stacks.You can count on me to- Design and write high quality software that works at scale- Lead by example and work well in a team- Learn and adapt quickly.Some super serious facts about me- I have a dog named Rasmus, he can catch anything you throw at him- I started doing singing lessons 2 years ago- My favorite soccer team is Arsenal.
