Summary
Johan Jacobsson is a seasoned software developer based in Karlskrona, Sweden, with a long career building telecommunications and systems software since the mid-1990s. He brings deep language versatility—C++ roots from 1995, Java since 2007, and production Scala work since 2016—applied across roles at Ericsson, Qvantel, HiQ and now Kustbevakningen. Comfortable in both hands-on implementation and system design, he has spent over a decade solving telecom-scale challenges and mentoring teams. His background includes academic teaching early in his career and an M.Sc. in Computer Science and Engineering from Lund, reflecting a blend of practical engineering and formal training. Colleagues describe him as steady and pragmatic, able to navigate long-lived codebases and evolve them with modern JVM and functional-programming techniques.
