Hi, I’m Olof.
I build and design software for financial institutions and e-commerce.
I am enthusiastic, positive and motivated, and always curious to learn more.
I like people who make me think.
A traffic information website to present bus, tram, subway and ferry public transport status information in Berlin.
The project is a redesign of the BVG Verkehrsmeldungen section of the BVG website.
An ongoing Senacor project, which aims to expand the digital product portfolio offered by the bank.
The Hacker School is a German organisation aiming to teach children and youth programming and software developing using a more interactive project-based approach.
The organisation is a NGO based in Hamburg, with courses all over Germany.
My participation have been focused around workshops using the micro:bit platform, which aims to teach programming concepts and logic through a drag and drop GUI.
Despite its simplicity, the micro:bit allows for an impressive creativity and freedom.
A Senacor internal project to evaluate the maturity of serverless (or function-as-a-service). I was working with a small team to calculate and visualise the CO₂ emissions caused by the travelling of each employee. This could then be compensated by CO₂ offsetting.
The taxi, flight and train data was gathered for all (500+) employees, evaluated and visualised through different dashboards.
Note that this information is not public, and can only be accessed as a Senacor employee.
As part of my Computing Science degree I spent a year in industry at Nomad Digital, where I was working at the System Administration team.
The work focused on maintaining the reliable operation and upkeep of the systems and network utilised within the company with an emphasis on Linux environments, Virtualisation and Cisco networking equipment.
