👋 Hi, I'm Lucas

Tobey is a Swedish start-up company that operates within the tool and equipment rental industry. By using smart parcel boxes, smaller machines becomes more accessible for the craftsman. I am one of the founders.

The Swedish Chess Federation have for years collected chessclubs protocol and signatures by mail and scanned email. I helped them with a fully digital signing solution with onscreen drawing box and onetime links.

Layke Analytics provides a tool for smart candidate search across different platforms. It uses artificial intelligence to make a search or sourcing process more efficient. I made a simple dashboard for viewing analytics, creating and handling candidate and job ads matches.

When the Swedish gaming monopoly was removed in 2019, Svensk Travsport had to take over services from the betting company ATG and adapt them to their own tech stack. In my team we are modernizing the flow of updating screens on the horse tracks with results and odds data. Challenges have consisted of having many dependencies and adapting to them, as well as working with old file formats.

Wellr is a health concept measuring, evaluating and improving health and working environment. Central is the React Native app where the employee can track their challenges and compete with coworkers. My contribution has been an implementation of background synchronization to keep fitness data fresh. I also added Sentry to record app crashes and log exceptions.

With the isolation due to covid-19 the Swedish Chess Federation had to go online with their chess tournaments. Their current real time chess platform, Yes2Chess, only handled one type of tournament and there were questions about how the platform would perform with more players. To make it less tournament specific I rewrote the frontend. The in app cache was replaced with Redis as a cache and a pub-sub system to make it scalable. I also replaced the websocket solution with GraphQL subscriptions. The project was mainly for their biggest tournament, Schackfyran, reaching over 25 000 fourth graders every year.

I worked with two projects at the online payment platform Svea WebPay. A back office system for handling payment fraud and a web app for payment and order management. We worked agile in a cross-functional team and I worked closely with UX, QA, backenders and stakeholders. I was responsible for everything frontend, from applying new translations to implementing design systems. Multiple business areas were coordinated to one authentication service. I was responsible for handling our connection. During the projects I added TypeScript, integrated accessibility checks with Storybook to our process and implemented tracking.

I worked as a web developer in a cross-functional team at Svea marketing division. I also added tracking for Svea’s services, optimized svea.com for SEO and launched sites for affiliates in other countries. In addition I lead web development in a bigger design refreshment of svea.com due to a brand merge of Svea Ekonomi and Svea Bank. When the assignment ended we had collected 1 237 pages under the same domain, conversion had grown by 20% and organic traffic was stable even despite fierce competition.

I developed a dashboard with components for searching and aggregating tabular data combined with dynamic graphs.

I built an animation and video heavy marketing website for an upcoming product.

At the Swedish Chess Federation I worked as a sole developer. Which meant that I was responsible for the whole stack, from UX to devops. I was mainly working with three projects:

A real time chess platform that I builded from the ground up. It is mainly used for the chess tournament with the same name, where schools from Sweden are competing online. Difficulties consisted of having an easy-to-use design for unfamiliar chess players and getting around schools firewalls. During a single year a total of 4 000 kids played more than 20 000 games of chess.

Administrating 40 000+ members, the backbone of the federation. I maintained and implemented e.g. a statistics module, a payment solution for tournaments via Stripe and a new RESTful API.

I maintained the Swedish Chess Federation's website which had more than 10 000 daily pageviews.
