Summary
Knut Funkel is a Senior Project Manager and technical leader with 15+ years delivering complex software and embedded tools across multinational teams in Sweden, UK, Canada and beyond. He blends hands-on engineering experience—from Symbian and Maemo mobile apps to Android and Ubuntu Touch development—with strong program management skills in both Agile (Scrum/Kanban) and traditional PROPS environments. At Fingerprint Cards he built the production test tools organization that scaled to support millions of sensors daily, and at Tunstall he now leads a global effort building a hosted care and health platform. Knut is an advocate for pragmatic agile adoption, has driven application-suite architecture and cross-team reuse, and frequently bridges R&D and customer-facing priorities. An active open-source practitioner, he has repacked Android ROMs, compiled niche tooling for macOS, and created Tasker automations—reflecting a willingness to dive deep into device-level problems. Based in Malmö, he combines interaction-design training with project-management certifications to translate technical complexity into clear plans and measurable delivery.
