My main work today is as an AI Engineer at Eletive, where the interesting work is not demos but useful systems, safe workflows, and better engineering practice.

I am a Malmö-based software engineer, founder, and practical AI engineer focused on agentic engineering, practical AI adoption, and the judgement needed to turn experiments into working systems.
My main work today is as an AI Engineer at Eletive, where the interesting work is not demos but useful systems, safe workflows, and better engineering practice.
Through Valentine Web Systems, part-time, I run practical AI workshops and other consulting for teams that want to move from prompting to useful workflows.
My deepest work is with software teams, but I also help marketing, HR/PX, sales, and leadership teams turn AI from novelty into useful workflows.
I write and experiment under the Digital Viking name, which is where the technical alter ego and rougher AI/tooling notes belong.
I am learning angel investing with an interest in useful AI, developer tools, boring B2B software, and technical founders.

Selected notes on agentic engineering, software work, founders, and the occasional personal detour.

Long hours are not always the problem. The wrong work is. Energy is often a better signal than time.

Building a small thing with my son, ChatGPT, and the kind of curiosity that makes technology worth keeping around.

When breaking process helps, when it hurts, and why judgement matters more than rule worship.
