Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolTobias Hernstig is a Lead Software Architect and seasoned founder with over a decade of experience designing scalable, cloud-native systems and a strong focus on Developer Experience. He combines hands-on coding in Node.js, TypeScript, Go, and Python with architecture work—advocating toolchains, linting, CI/CD and GitOps to help teams ship faster and with higher quality. Tobias has deep telecom and edge computing experience from a long tenure at Ericsson and now applies that expertise to product-focused ventures like Total Controls and Siniz Consulting. An active open-source contributor and habitual tinkerer, he codes in his free time and prefers "active" architecture where design and implementation stay tightly coupled. Beyond software, he’s an entrepreneur who successfully introduced a consumer brand (Bubbies mochi) to the Nordics and exited in 2019, demonstrating product instincts alongside technical leadership. Based in Gothenburg, he blends startup grit with enterprise-grade engineering discipline.
