About Henrik Engström

Henrik Engström is a CTO at Grand Cloud at idPair. He possess expertise in agile methodologies, application servers, online gaming, retail, java and 2 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "Henrik is a professional that can brilliantly wear many hats: he's an experienced and talented engineer, a formidable communicator, and he fully understands what it takes to build a successful business. On top of everything, he's also one of the humblest individuals I know: inclusive and a great listener. I've been a colleague of Henrik for over 4 years at Lightbend and you'd be fortunate to have him on your team.", "I have worked with Henrik at Typesafe/Lightbend for 4.5 years. He has been an incredible role model, on a personal level to me – around how to communicate clearly, commit and lead by example. He leads and takes responsibility for decisions, which makes him a corner stone of every team he's been part of, as team members know they can depend on him. He has displayed impressive technical skills, ranging from low-level performance work on the JVM and optimizing hot core, all the way to designing large systems systems, taking into account various business trade-offs and priorities, which I had the pleasure to see in action during working on architecture workshops together, as well as observing the design of the products he worked on (instrumentation and monitoring infrastructure). Last but not least, he is a genuinely sincere and awesome person to have around, and an invaluable asset to any company. I hope our professional paths will cross again in the future.", and "I've worked with Henrik approximately 15 months at Unibet. Henrik is a person who takes his work seriously and he is very dedicated, reliable and always delivering quality results consistently. He is a pro-active and vary social person and he has always a great attitude which makes him easy to work with. I highly recommend Henrik."
