Projects
01Multi-Broker Trading PlatformPaper-trading research
A modular Python platform for researching, simulating, and paper-testing trading strategies with explicit risk controls.
- Separated market data, strategy, risk, execution, journaling, and analytics into testable components.
- Built time-aware research workflows with causal features, chronological evaluation, and bid/ask execution modelling to avoid misleading backtests.
- Orchestrated repeatable paper sessions with risk checks, trade journals, and automated verification so results can be inspected and reproduced.
- Python
- PyTorch & scikit-learn
- Time-series validation
- Causal feature engineering
- Risk & execution modelling
02Dynamic Task RouterDeveloper tooling
A developer tool that routes bounded engineering tasks by capability, risk, and cost while keeping human review in the workflow.
- Uses explicit task and provider policies to select a model and effort level without hard-coding one vendor.
- Shares routing, execution, and run telemetry across the CLI, interactive TUI, and MCP server.
- Supports isolated worktrees, ownership boundaries, and verification steps for reviewable code changes.
- TypeScript & Node.js
- MCP
- Policy-driven model routing
- Process orchestration
- Isolated worktrees
03PlanAroundStudy planning
Turns timetable screenshots and assignment briefs into a realistic study schedule that fits around lectures, commitments, and deadlines.
- AI only extracts structure from messy inputs; workload estimation and scheduling stay deterministic and explainable.
- Workload is derived from ECTS, assessment weighting, and rubric structure, not guessed by the model.
- Preserves completed work when plans change, with validated local data and offline support in a PWA.
- Next.js & TypeScript
- Cloudflare Workers
- Multimodal extraction
- Deterministic scheduling
- Offline-capable PWA
04Deal LedgerDeal discovery
Building and maintaining a US deal-discovery site with automated candidate research and human review before publication.
- Built searchable deal pages and item alerts around a structured catalogue.
- Developed a Python ingestion pipeline that checks product data, suppresses duplicates, and prepares candidates for review.
- Kept publishing behind manual price and listing checks, with automated site builds and deployment.
- Hugo
- Python
- GitHub Actions
- Product-data validation
- Review-gated publishing
Experience
2026Software Engineering InternEricssonCI/CD support & pipeline engineering
- Restructured a roughly 1,100-line Python CI decorators file into shared and executor-specific files, then introduced a parameterised factory that reduced the shared file to about 200 lines.
- Built Groovy verification stages for cloud archive packaging and audited production builds, finding an undeclared ELF executable; added unit-tested artifact-repository checks to confirm files were present.
- Developed and maintained Jenkins/Groovy stages for build, test, deployment, and cleanup workflows; configured Spinnaker parameters and cross-pipeline integration, and migrated test flows to lighter snapshot-based jobs.
- Resolved a blocker build regression by tracing and reverting a faulty changeset; diagnosed Spinnaker-to-Jenkins authentication failures and a Kubernetes cleanup issue caused by Python file-write mode.
- Updated Docker wrapper and build rules for SELinux volume mounts during parallel container execution, maintained Helm/Helmfile deployment configurations, and documented technical investigations.
2025Web Development InternOssarkClient website delivery
- Contributed to client website projects through implementation, QA, and release, delivering responsive PHP/SCSS changes across multiple production sites.
- Diagnosed frontend issues and translated client/team feedback into layout, usability, and responsive-design improvements without disrupting established pages.
