Hello! I’m Leif, a Norwegian dude living in Oslo.

I’ve worked in game development for ~6 years, as a technical project manager/programmer team lead on a proprietary game engine and pipeline tools for massively multiplayer online role-playing games.

Then I had a short ~2,5 year stint as a technical project manager/technical advisor (consultant) for banks and financial institutions.

From 2015 to 2024, I worked as a Digital Business Developer, Data Science Lead, and Backend Developer for the largest electronics retailer in the Nordics.

In 2024, I returned to the games industry and helped launch Dune: Awakening.

As for hobbies, I’m learning Japanese and I enjoy playing shōgi (Japanese chess). I also enjoy reading, and I’ve been a technical book reviewer for various authors via publishers like Pragprog and O’Reilly.

I’m looking forward to learning more about Elixir (and Erlang) and engaging in the community. I would also be interested in meeting friendly people with similar interests in Oslo. Feel free to PM me about anything.
