About Bjorn

Need to secure the redesign of a critical application, streamline your architecture, or remobilize a tech team?

As a Solutions Architect & Engineering Manager (formerly CTO/Founder for 10 years), I step in to transform your business requirements into scalable architectures, while ensuring the velocity of your development teams.

🎯 What I bring you concretely:
• Zero technical debt: Decoupled and modern architectures (React, TypeScript, Node.js) that support your growth.
• Leadership & Delivery (Teams up to 10 devs): Structuring agile rituals, mentoring, and streamlining remote communication.
• Rare Business Expertise (BIM / PropTech / Energy): Modeling and restitution of massive data flows for the building industry.
• Tech & Business Bridge: Aligning engineering with your KPIs and translating your vision into clear technical choices.

🏗️ My deliverables and typical projects:
• Architecture Audits & Re-platforming: Mapping of existing systems and migration plans for legacy systems.
• Transition Management & Tech Lead: Operational delivery management, recruitment, and performance management.
• Architecture Dossiers (DAL): Specifications, data schemas, stack choices, and API/Microservices design.
• Scoping and Cost Estimation: Breakdown of complex large-scale projects (>1500 person-days).

✨ My Difference: Dual Franco-Swedish culture, native English speaker, proven positive leadership posture internationally. Based in Brittany, I work fully remotely.
