Presentation

My main job is to work as a “full stack” IoT developer, making prototypes for agriculture and wildlife conservation. I am excited about how technology can be of help in rural environments. I enjoy developing my technical skills and building devices that have an impact.

Some skills that I use in my position:

  • Embedded programming
  • Circuit design and PCB
  • RF technologies like LoRa and cellular networks
  • Linux server management
  • Docker

My roles

Agtech Sweden

I am one of the four innovation block leaders of the organization, where we help in the development of innovation projects in agriculture.

Project Ngulia

Wildlife conservation in Ngulia (Kenya) and Sanwild (South Africa). We’re helping the park rangers by developing smart technologies to make their work more effective.

Agtech Sweden

Agtech Sweden aims to build up an innovation environment and activate a mobilisation aiming for tomorrow's agriculture.

Organisations

Department of Electrical Engineering (ISY)

At ISY, we conduct research and education in the field of Electrical Engineering. A strong emphasis is placed on research- and industrial collaborations.

Automatic Control (RT)

The activities include problems in sensor fusion, system identification, robotics/autonomous systems, optimization for control applications and complex networks. They aim at a good balance between theoretical developments and industrial applications.

Research about Electrical Engineering at Linköpings university
