Professionell bakgrund

CTO
eBuilder Effortless Device Care

2015-02 - 2019-05

Feb 2015 - May 2019
eBuilder is a start-up selling effortless device care service to mobile operators with the
operator's subscribers as the main end users, see https://ebuilder.com/ First customer and investor is Telia Group. After pivot, see https://www.marakanda.com/

CTO responsible for technology R&D organisation in Stockholm - Sweden, Minsk - Belarus,
Dalian - China and Colombo - Sri Lanka.

Initial business focus was on providing personalised customer support via a self-service
mobile-app to a mobile operator's customer with intent of reducing support costs while
increasing customer satisfaction. Subsequently, a pivot was made to instead focus on a data
product, making predictions for two key business use cases for a mobile operator: 1) which
device users are likely to consider a new mobile operator and 2) which device users are likely to purchase a new mobile device combined with various analytics. The predictions were
based on time-series data collected from the mobile device and machine learning.

Grew initial seed team of six persons in Stockholm via recruitment and complemented it
using sourcing partners in Minsk and Dalian as well as leveraging resources from existing
eBuilder daughter company in Colombo into multiple feature teams and one continuous
delivery component team.

Established release model and program management function combining elements from SCRUM- and Kanban-models into stable five-week cycles. After the pivot the release model
was changed into a pure Kanban-model to better fit with the business' needs.

Designed a multi-tenant solution architecture with react native clients for Android, iOS and Web and a backend built on AWS complemented by a commercial, third-party content
management system. Solution is architected as a set of micro-services and leverages API
Gateway, Lambdas, Kinesis, Firehose, S3, Dynamo, Redshift, QuickSight, Mobile Analytics
and Machine Learning. Machine Learning make use of Glue for data pipelines and SageMaker for model design, training- and predictions. Solution is based on AWS' server-less
concept and is thus highly cost-effective. It is serving 6 million active users (MAU) per
month and is deployed in EU/Ireland and AP/Japan.
