Product engineer
for teams that
give a damn

Over a decade building software that gets used. I build with and without AI — and know the difference. Previously at Hemnet, JointAcademy, and Apoex.

I care about what you're building, not just how.

Work

Clients

Over a decade of experience. High-traffic platforms, digital health, regulated industries.

Hemnet

Mar 2022 – Present

Sweden's largest property portal

Millions of users. Over 100,000 property transactions a year. I built B2B products, improved search experience, and shipped reliably under pressure, year after year.

JointAcademy

Mar 2021 – Mar 2022

Telehealth for chronic joint & back pain

A digital clinic available in five countries. I built features end-to-end, from database to mobile app. I worked on treatment flows, on-boarding, and patient experience.

Per is someone you can always turn to when you need help understanding the technical details. He has a natural ability to make complex technical decisions understandable without losing the depth. He genuinely cares about the customer and the product, not just the code. And when Per commits to something, it gets done.

Stack

What I work with

Strong on the backend. Capable everywhere else. Old craft, new tools — AI accelerated by default.

Backend

  • Ruby on Rails
  • PostgreSQL / PostGIS
  • OpenSearch / ElasticSearch
  • Redis
  • GraphQL
  • REST APIs

Frontend & Mobile

  • TypeScript
  • JavaScript
  • Next.js
  • React
  • React Native
  • iOS / Swift

Infrastructure & Tooling

  • Claude Code
  • SDD — Spec driven development
  • Docker / Linux
  • CI/CD
  • AWS
  • Agile / TDD / BDD

This is what I reach for most often. Not a ceiling. I pick up new tools fast.

What I do

How I work

Product engineer. I ship features end-to-end — from the first conversation to the last commit.

Embedded development

I work in your team. I own what I build — from the database to the deploy. I get up to speed fast. I treat your code as if I'll be the one maintaining it.

Technical leadership

I look at the architecture. I look at the code. I tell you what will break and why. I've seen these things go wrong before. That's worth something.

Project-based work

Give me a problem with a finish line. I'll ship it. Regulated industries, high-traffic platforms, blank slates. The middle of a project is where it dies. I keep it moving.

About

Who I am

Per Andersen

I'm Per, a product engineer in Stockholm.

I've spent over a decade building things people actually use — high-traffic platforms, digital health systems, pharmacy infrastructure.

Running my own consultancy since 2016. The work I'm proudest of shares a common thread: hard problems, high standards, teams that cared.

I ask the hard questions early. I push back when something doesn't add up. The longest engagements I've had were the ones where I was treated as someone who thinks — not just someone who executes.

In Saltsjö-Boo with my partner, two boys, and a house I'm still rebuilding by hand.
