Emil Larsson is a Head of Engineering based in Stockholm with 11 years building and scaling ML and AI systems across finance, media and healthcare. He now leads engineering at Grasp, focusing on bringing practical AI into finance to close the wide gap between research capabilities and industry adoption. Previously he spent six years at Modulai rising from Senior ML Engineer to Head of Engineering and Board Member, delivering production ML for clients like EQT, AMD and SvD and growing the team and client pipeline. Early work at Klarna produced deployed credit-risk and personalization models — including a patented method for identifying returning users — showing a blend of product impact and technical depth. Trained as an engineering physicist, Emil pairs rigorous quantitative grounding with hands-on system delivery and a curiosity-driven ethos captured by his Feynman-inspired GitHub motto.
