AI Engineer · AI Business Solutions Architect · Full-Stack Developer
I design and build AI systems, currently as a consultant at Veni. Based in Stavanger, Norway.
I am an AI engineer and AI business solutions architect. My work sits in the gap between a model and the business around it: deciding what a system can be trusted to work out on its own, what has to stay deterministic, and how the whole thing holds up once real people use it every day.
At Veni I develop AI systems as a consultant. Right now that means real-time transcription, automated quality assurance, and domain-specific reasoning, built on Azure, Microsoft Foundry, self-hosted models, and the Microsoft Power Platform.
I came to it from building software end to end. Self-taught at the core, with a BSc in Computer Technology from the University of Stavanger, and a habit of owning the whole stack rather than treating any layer as somebody else's problem. I care about security, performance, and interfaces that respect the person in front of them.
Solutions where models plan, call tools, and hand work to each other. Most of the engineering sits in the boundaries: what an agent is allowed to decide on its own, what it has to ask for, and where deterministic code takes over.
Getting a system to answer in an organisation's own language, rules, and edge cases rather than the internet's average, then measuring whether it actually does before anyone relies on it.
Transcription and automated quality assurance over live conversation, from capture through to structured output a person can act on.
Turning a workflow people already perform into a system they can own: scope, data flow, guardrails, rollout, and a surface the business can maintain without me sitting next to it.
Alongside the consulting work I design and ship products of my own, end to end, across mobile, desktop, browser, and web. The ground covered so far:
Real-time chat, progression systems, and cross-platform clients, grown into a live community of thousands.
Community reference sites on structured data, scripted templates, and full-text search, read thousands of times a day.
Lightweight desktop clients for small teams and casual users, built around speed, simplicity, and a native feel.
Cross-platform tools where the security model is the product itself, including open-source authentication.

Developing AI systems for clients, currently around real-time transcription, automated quality assurance, and domain-specific reasoning. Built on Azure, Microsoft Foundry, self-hosted models, and the Microsoft Power Platform. Architecture and implementation both.
My own studio, and where most of my engineering habits were formed. I architect and release cross-platform products end to end, from the first commit to the release channel.
Warehouse order fulfilment alongside full-time BSc studies. Held today as a supplementary role to my consulting work.
Front-line operations at Stavanger Airport (Sola): high-volume customer service, vehicle damage inspections, and fleet logistics.
