Jakob H is a software developer with a decade of experience building data platform infrastructure and cloud-native systems, currently based in Aarhus. He has delivered client environments and real-time platform components using Kafka, Terraform and Microsoft Azure at Netcompany and now at BattMan Energy, with prior cloud and observability work at Danske Bank. Jakob combines hands-on backend and full-stack skills—demonstrated by contributions to notable open-source projects like Gitea and Arch Linux installer—and a long-running involvement in the ComputerCraft/CC-Tweaked community where he improved APIs, UX and robustness. He also teaches and examines software engineering students at Aarhus University, reflecting a commitment to mentoring and knowledge transfer. Comfortable moving between infrastructure-as-code, monitoring tooling and embedded scripting environments, he favors pragmatic, testable changes that improve reliability and developer experience. A pattern across his work is careful attention to process improvements (e.g., safer subprocess handling and better error checks) that quietly boost system stability.
