Summary
Karl Persson is a technical market validation specialist with a background in mechanical engineering and a master's in mechatronics, combining 12 years of hands-on engineering experience with product and team development. Formerly a Scrum Master implementing LeSS for two cross-functional teams, he has practical experience reducing waste, improving workflows and driving organisational change. He now evaluates how deep tech can be integrated into industrial production lines, mapping value chains and validating go-to-market plans while initiating strategic collaborations. His early career in embedded and backend engineering (C++/Ada) and work on ML models for sensor error detection give him a rare blend of systems-level technical fluency and commercial judgement. Based in the Greater Linköping area, he brings a pragmatic, delivery-focused approach and a knack for translating technical constraints into viable business opportunities. An understated strength is his hands-on manufacturing experience, from assembly and soldering to production validation, which informs realistic industrial adoption assessments.
