About Me

Troels worked on web applications, AI, blockchains, and quantum computing during the past ten years. His skillset includes full-stack development, big data analysis, high-performance computing, and cryptography. His latest work including building a SaaS that does natural language analysis. The tech stack used in this work consisted of React and TypeScript for the front end and Django and Python for the back end with the natural language engine written in C++.

Work history

Microsoft
Senior C++ Developer
2021 - Present (3 years)
Remote
  • Developed a component for Azure Quantum Cloud responsible for the validation and transformation of quantum programs before sending them to the hardware backends.

  • Made a custom LLVM infrastructure to transform LLVMs internal representation for quantum computers.

  • Took ownership of a component in the quantum tech stack, including planning and bug-tracking.

  • Made a front end in React and TypeScript, enabling the customers to sign up, create natural language processes, and execute them on the back end.

  • Made the back end using Django, Django REST framework, and Python. The back end was integrated with Stripe and allowed social login.

  • Built a high-performance natural language engine in C++ with Python bindings using PyBind11.

  • Built a background worker using Celery that allowed the execution of the C++ code through a REST interface.

  • Created deployment manifests for Kubernetes and Docker images for the above components.

  • Created infrastructure for continuous integration and continuous delivery.

Fetch.AI
Head of Software Engineering
2018 - 2020 (2 years)
Remote
  • Created a crypto-currency wallet using React and Electron to enable users to interact with the Fetch.AI network. This wallet enabled users to send and receive tokens on the Fetch.AI network.

  • Created block explorer using Django, Django REST framework, and PostgreSQL that kept a log of all transactions that had happened on the network.

  • Made a transpiler that could transpile Solidity code into the Fetch.AI native smart contract language Etch.

  • Led the codebase development that allowed the company to raise $6,000,000 in less than 60 seconds.

  • Managed the planning with the leadership team and oversaw code development.

  • Led four teams with different responsibilities inside the company.

  • Contributed to all parts of the codebase both on the front end, back ends, and the blockchain.

Nokia
Research Leader
2017 - 2018 (1 year)
Remote
  • Developed remote telehealth concept using React, WebRTC, and our in-house build blockchain, which was used for minute-by-minute payment.

  • Wrote peer-to-peer networking library and blockchain code using C++ and ASIO.

  • Mentored the team in writing patent applications and wrote multiple blockchain applications.

  • Created a roadmap and planned features of an in-house built blockchain solution.

  • Developed an app for the local community, allowing them to trade items and send messages to each other using Django and Python.

  • Managed deployment of multiple websites using Django, Apache, and Nginx.

  • Built a clustering algorithm that ran client-side. It could cluster half a million markers on Google Maps in real time.

Fetch.AI
Senior Software Engineer
Present (2024 years)
Remote
  • Designed an MVP crypto-currency wallet using React and Electron. This MVP had the ability to let users perform simple transactions and searches.

  • Designed the blockchain architecture and created an MVP using C++.

  • Wrote the first version of a vectorized math library based on fixed points in C++. This code used SSE and AVX intrinsics alongside template unrolling to optimize the code on the assembly level.

  • Mentored junior developers to ensure high code quality.

  • Oversaw the development and created the initial system for code reviews.
