#NordcloudianStories: “Constant new improvements”

Post • 2 min read
Cloud Architect 1. Where are you from and how did you end up at Nordcloud?

I started in Storvreta, lived in Göteborg and studied in Luleå. There I started a company doing internet radio and moved to Malmö. Company unfortunately went bankrupt after six successful years, but it was one of the best learning points for my career and I got interested in cloud and AWS there. I then worked in government sector but wanted to get into a more fast paced company, so joined a start up in Denmark and worked in-house on premise to cloud implementations and automation from where I then moved again to a satellite communication company. Nordcloud then found me at the right time as I was ready for a change and it's now been 3 years!

2.What is your role and core competence? 

Cloud architect, mostly enablement. I have also worked with implementations and automation. I advise companies how to best work with the cloud.

3. What do you like most about working at Nordcloud?

Mostly flexibility and variety of projects. We are not a big consultancy, but are one of the best working with all of the top cloud providers. I get to learn a lot and I am constantly expected to be expert. As the organisation has a flat structure you have the chance to get engaged more and you have a voice and can influence the business decisions.

4. What is the most useful thing you have learned at Nordcloud?

Communication is key both internally and externally and also to never stop learning!

5. What sets you on fire/ What’s your favourite thing technically with public cloud?

Constant new improvements. You blink and there are 10 new different things.

6. What do you do outside work?  I have a lovely dog and partner and my current big passion are board games ! 7. Best Nordcloudian memory? Most recent one where we all planned our new office in Malmö, everyone was so engaged and involved and we got to have own voice in the decision making.
