Jonas Kjellström is a veteran software leader and CTO based in Stockholm with 16 years of experience designing high-performance systems and leading engineering teams across games and telecom. He brings deep hands-on expertise in C++, .NET and Python, shaped by long tenures as Technical Director at DICE on the Battlefield and Star Wars Battlefront franchises and now steering technology at Embark Studios. Comfortable moving between low-level systems (drivers, SMS/WAP gateways, NT services) and large-scale game architectures, he blends pragmatic engineering with architectural foresight. Jonas’s career started in embedded and safety-critical systems and has consistently layered product-scale real-time expertise on top of that foundation. Colleagues describe him as a technical steward who mentors teams while remaining an active coder and architect.
