Hi!

My name is Ahraz.

I am an independent freelance software developer 🧑‍💻, based out of Gothenburg, Sweden 🇸🇪. You can learn a little about me here, I also use this to occasionally shout into the void of the internet.

Senior Software Engineer | Generalist

About Me

My interest in technology started early, with a computer at home as far back as I can remember and a curiosity to explore. My first programming experience came around age 11 or 12, modifying Java code for a RuneScape private server in notepad and hacking away on Microsoft FrontPage to create top-notch clan websites.

It has been almost 20 years since then and I have learned a thing or two, having been in the industry now for almost a decade. With proven experience working in small start-ups, large enterprises and anything in between, I have the capability to make a strong impact on almost any project in almost any team.

What am I good at?

Backend | Infrastructure | Front-end | Machine Learning

My expertise lies in full-stack web development, with a focus on backend and infrastructure. I’m experienced in Java/JVM, C#/.NET, Golang and familiar with cloud-native technologies such as Kubernetes, Docker, and Terraform (and associated tooling). I have a solid foundation in React, Javascript, Typescript and the front-end ecosystem.

I also have a publication on the topic of Neural Network Compression. My footing in ML enables me to be a key player in the domains of MLOps and supporting ML processes and infrastructure around ML workloads.

My skills cover various aspects of software engineering including system architecture, security practices (DevSecOps), and CI/CD, alongside managing complex infrastructures.
