I am starting a company that will revolutionize how we think about trading scarce resources such as luxury items, flight parking spaces and many other things. We are building an open blockchain based combinatorial market for non-fungible tokens. In laymans terms, this means a market place that captures user preferences to offer highly personalised experiences.
I made my first electric circuit when I was 5, wrote my first program when I was 10 and made my first physics simulation when I was 15. I've been enthusiastic about technology since I was born and have worked with many different fields including algorithm design, quantum computing platforms and machine learning. Recently, I've mainly been interested in classical hardware architectures, machine learning, distributed ledgers and business development around these fields.
I believe that humans can build a better world by continuously develop, improve and refine the technology that surrounds us.
I strive towards building value in whatever I do, regardless whether I am working with quantum computing or health.
With multiple publications in high ranking journals such as Science and Nature Physics, my research is recognised internationally.
Todays world is massively disconnected. Even though we see more and more peer to peer platforms (Uber, AirBnB), the platforms themselves does not provide interoperability. I am passionate about making the world more connected.
I lead a team who is building a technology that combines blockchain technology with artificial intelligence. My role was to keep track of the bigger picture, provide day to day guidance as well as writing wasts amounts of code. We built building a truly ground breaking technology that uses AI/ML to provide a decentralised search functionality and a scalable blockchain to create cross-ecosystem integrations.
I've also worked on machine learning, FPGA design, quantum computing, optimisation, physics and many other things.
I spent a great part of my life coding. Most codes are done in C++ or Python. I have 20+ years of experience in C++ and 10+ in Python.
Part of my activities include rapid prototyping where I work with building hardware proof-of-concepts. Typically, I use OpenSCAD for 3D designs and prototype boards for electronics, although I have some experience with Eagle CAD and similar software.
I use a wide variety of skills in my work. Below are some of my most useful skills and my own perception of my level.
C++I am currently starting a new company, Wonop. Previously, I am playing an central role in building Fetch.ai. In the past, I've experiemented with building consulting companies and luxury consumer goods retail businesses.
My key focus area is technology heavy companies. Specifically, I focus on blockchains and AI/ML based solution.
I spend a great amount of time on general technology exploration. Naturally, I am a Kickstarter addict and have bought stuff online using Bitcoin since 2014.
Selected projects which I think are cool.
At Fetch.AI we are building a truly innovative technology that allows search for IoT to exist in a decentralised ecosystem. We use decentralised market places to learn the grouping of items in an unsupervised manner to efficiently arrange the space.
Together with a skilled team, I've been exploring blockchains with focus on many different areas including media distribution, digital health, payment systems and other areas. This work was done while I was still part of Nokia.
Together with colleagues we developed depth mapping algorithms based on the Potts model and improved them. We also developed FPGA codes and concepts related real-time depth map generation.
As the popularity of Bitcoin was rising, I started developing a Bitcoin hardware wallet. After joining Nokia, this project was adopted and accelerated in our research team. Over time, the focus has changed to a more general ledger enabled hardware solution.
I worked at ETH as a post doc in Matthias Troyers group where we studied D-Wave One and Two. With multiple publications in Science and a Nature Physics paper, our work is internationally recognised as research on the highest level.
