Summary
Göran Erkstam is a senior software engineer and IT consultant based in Uppsala with over two decades of hands-on experience building and architecting self‑service banking systems such as ATMs and cash recyclers. He brings deep expertise in C/C++ and SQL since the late 1990s, plus Java/J2EE and web technologies, and a strong focus on secure financial transaction flows (EMV, PCI, PKI, encryption). His career spans system design, integration, and testing across Wincor Nixdorf, Kentor/Sopra Steria and Consid, where he has implemented transaction handling, hardware interfaces and customer dialogs for high‑availability payment terminals. A Certified ScrumMaster with an electrical engineering background from KTH, he combines low‑level device knowledge with enterprise integration skills—an uncommon mix that helps bridge hardware constraints and software architecture in mission‑critical payments projects.
