Top SchoolMats Högberg is a software engineer with 11 years of hands-on experience building full-stack systems for startups and large tech firms, currently working at Palantir in London. He combines strong academic performance—a near-perfect Master's from Chalmers—with practical delivery at companies like Spotify, Yelp, Google and Einride, often shipping backend services and single-page apps. Mats has founded and exited a startup (Surview), demonstrating product sense and end-to-end ownership from business strategy to CI/CD-backed deployments on AWS. He excels at backend systems (Node.js, Python, Java), data work (MySQL/Redshift, dashboards) and rapid prototyping, and has a track record of improving internal tooling and developer workflows. Known for studying efficiently to leave time for side projects, he balances deep technical focus with curiosity across frontend and infrastructure. An early career emphasis on customer-facing features and measurable impact (from messaging inboxes to telemetry dashboards) underpins his pragmatic engineering style.
