Here is what we have been working on
Top level management
Klarna
Prior to HappiHacking Erik managed the scaling of the IT department of Klarna from 1 to 80 people. Led the development and operation of a 24/7 internet scale payment system. Scaled the performance of Klarna’s business system with the exponentially increasing business needs of Klarna. As CTO Erik participated in the C-level management together with the three founders of Klarna.
"Erik Stenman was the first CTO of Klarna and, without a doubt, one of very few key people behind its great success. During Klarnas early years Eriks ability to transform C-level Management requirements in to comprehensive and strategic development tasks as well as being a part of the development team that performed those tasks was an invaluable asset for Klarna. As Klarna grew Erik, very smoothly, grew with the company and his responsibilities, handling people and larger strategic issues with the same professionalism and positive attitude as ever."

Happi, also mentored some of the CTOs/CIOs that came after him.

Secure payments
Global payment service provider
An expert from HappiHacking was assigned as appointed expert advisor for Klarna's core system and for system development in Erlang. The tasks included areas such as system development, architecture, monitoring and product development. Thanks to our help and expertise, the customer was able to stabilize their most vital system and thus meet the demands of increased traffic and demands from their customers.
"Tobias is one of the more talented Engineers I have had the pleasure to work with. Tobias is not just an excellent coder, he takes a product and system responsibility from initial architectural aspects, through implementation and later operations - including troubleshooting. Tobias is a dream member of any engineering team. In addition, Tobias is a strong individual who speaks his mind, and with experience I can tell he is most often right in his conclusions. I can highly recommend Tobias and there will always be an open position in my organization for him."
