Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJakob Berglund is a Senior Frontend Lead based in Stockholm with over a decade of experience designing and delivering scalable front-end architectures, design systems and accessible UX. He combines hands-on engineering—Typescript, React/Nuxt, web components—with strategic leadership, having driven micro-frontend migrations and central design systems across large public and enterprise organizations. Jakob excels at bridging product, design and engineering teams to put maintainable component platforms and CI/CD workflows into production. He’s regularly hired to both define strategy and roll up his sleeves to implement complex decouplings from legacy monoliths. Outside of tech he brings a film and music background that informs his strengths in prototyping, storytelling and multidisciplinary collaboration. That creative edge often shows up in pragmatic UX improvements and documentation that make design systems more usable across organizations.
