Working in the role of "Lead Solution Architect" for the business area "Member", I was responsible for the architecture of the systems landscape serving the business area. As such, I

• helped formulate the guiding architectural principles for the business as a whole in cooperation with our Enterprise Architect and other architects
• helped build capacity to implement said principles throughout the organization by establishing a platform of standards and supporting tooling while sparring with developers to enable the implementation of said standard
• ensured the priorization of initiatives to support business goals while building organizational capacity aligned with established principles
• facilitated design of solutions in cooperation with developers and business stakeholders

While preforming my role, we took significant steps towards implementing an event driven architecture among increasingly domain-aligned services.

As an external consultant at Omada, I was part of a team developing a modern replacement for a data ingestion pipeline. The pipeline was designed around a heavily distributed architecture using Azure Functions to enable scaling of components in order to speed up the processing of large datasets. As a replacement of an existing component, a focus of the project was upgradeability of existing customers and behavioral compatibility.
My role consisted of solution design and implementation of individual components and their integration with the rest of the pipeline as well as aligning with stakeholders (namely other teams integrating with our pipeline).
As a newcomer to an experienced team in the middle of the project, my most significant contribution was the refactoring of configuration management and an associated reduction in abstraction and complexity, making it approachable for others.

As a Senior developer at Nordic Insurance Software, I was part of a team developing a suite of applications for insurance companies, ranging from on-premise desktop applications using WinForms through management websites using WebForms and finally a modern case handling SPA solution using .NET Core (soon to be 6) exposing a GraphQL API to a Typescript/React frontend. With supported hosting models including both on-premise and SaaS, a major focus of the team was supporting individual customers upgrade path regardless of when and how they would happen.
As part of the senior developers, my role consisted of validating requirements and estimating efforts, designing solutions and their architectural integration (particular for customer-specific developments), implementing them and testing them with our QA department, as well as supporting more junior developers.
As a newcomer to a team with many years at the company, my most significant contribution was designing and getting buy-in for a roadmap for refactoring and modernizing the legacy core which was complicating development.

As a freelancer at Sampension, I was part of a team developing a self-service app for pension customers. The team had the luxury of a blank slate leting us do things the right way from the outset. Very loosely coupled design with a focus on testing and CI/CD using GitHub and Azure DevOps.

As part of the backend team, my role consisted of validating requirements with subject matter experts, designing solutions and their architectural integration with the legacy systems on which we depended, implementing them in collaboration with the frontend team, and testing them with dedicated testers.

Being responsible for two core services of great importance to both customers andthe business, stability and performance was a priority right from the start. With proper asynchronicity and scheduling, I decoupled the performance and stability of key flows from that of the legacy services on which we depended resulting in very high stability and performance.
