Björn Henriksson is a technical lead with 11 years of hands-on experience building and scaling web products, currently leading core teams at Epidemic Sound focused on collaboration, playback and downloads. He combines full-stack fluency (Python, Ruby, Node, TypeScript, React/Ember) with deep operational know-how across AWS/GCP, observability and database performance tuning, and takes particular pride in architecting systems and solving tricky DB bottlenecks. A former CTO and co-founder of an e‑learning platform, he blends product, growth and fundraising experience with an engineer’s curiosity for minimalistic front-end craftsmanship and solid testing. Colleagues describe him as a people-focused mentor who enjoys tackling large rebrands, deploying ML-backed features, and turning complex requirements into scalable, maintainable solutions. Outside of work he’s an avid sauna-goer, Minecraft fan and Öland native, which speaks to a pragmatic, playful approach to problem solving.
