From August 2010 to Present (5 years 5 months) Project Manager and Software Developer @ During my roughly two years at HM I worked in the department called “OtherBrands”. OtherBrands is the collection of all the clothing brands that are owed or partly owned by HM, - however not their main brand “HM”. The brands are the following: Cos, Monki, Weekday, Cheap Monday, &OtherStories.
During these two years both the projects and my role changed a lot. I started out helping the department working with c# .Net, moving from their previous development environment to a new one. The transition worked very smoothly and after that I started working as a front-end developer for COS, during their redesign period. The Cos project was a success, and soon after also the other brands wanted to make a change. They also wanted to make their websites responsive in order to reach more customers on portable devices.
After a while the decision was made to work with an offshore team. My role then developed into being an agile project manager together with my front-end role. The role was to coordinate and keep the team in motion, one of the biggest challenges was due to that the team was distributed over three different locations. During my time at OtherBrands, all the brands was redesigned and made into more modern responsive websites.

phobia. For this they used a proprietary platform written in PHP. For better scalability and stability, Stockholm County Council decided create a new Platform, developed in .Net. The project building this new platform was started by some other consultants, but was never finished due to budget issues. I was together with a colleague hired to stabilize and analyze if further development should be done on the new platform. And if so, continue the development on this new platform. From September 2011 to January 2012 (5 months) Netlight Consultant @ I worked together with a small team to investigate and create different architectures for a new potential project with very high demands on performance, scalability and maintainability. Our architecture reached all the way from the presentation layer with different kinds of caching down to the data-layer and how to maintain our databases and keep the overall performance high. Our research was highly appreciated by the company.
