Senior frontend engineer · fullstack-capable · product-minded

I build products people trust with their money, their data, their time.

8 years building web and mobile products at startups — from a healthcare platform used in 130+ clinics in Scandinavia to founding my own company Oppli. I own things end to end: architecture, design system and product decisions.

Hire

Senior frontend IC

Staff-track roles at product-led companies — complex UI, design systems, and high-trust flows in fintech, SaaS, and founder tools.

Early-stage with real equity and ownership. I bring senior frontend craft plus product sense from day one.

Short sprints or long embeds. 0→1 builds and rescue passes are where I do my best work.

Embedded · Sprint from 4 weeks

Ship & extend

Add features and systems to a live product

New modules, integrations, design systems, and performance work on existing codebases. I slot into your team and ship merged PRs, not long proposals.

Rescue & cleanup

Make fast-built code production-ready

Moved fast with AI, no-code, or a first dev? I audit, simplify, refactor, and harden — without a full rewrite unless you actually need one.

Polished websites and product marketing surfaces that still feel engineered — fast, accessible, and ready to iterate without a rebuild.
