I build .NET services, and I run the machine they sit on.

I am 28, I live in Slagelse, and I have worked as a software developer since 2022 — two years at Formpipe Software, and at Veng ApS since February 2026. Mostly C# and ASP.NET Core on the backend, Angular on the front, and Azure DevOps in between.

What I keep coming back to is the whole path from code to something that is actually running, so in my own time I built that path at home: MSSQL in Docker, a private BaGet feed that my own NuGet packages publish to and my own services install from, a private Docker registry, a self-hosted GitHub Actions runner, Nginx Proxy Manager holding a wildcard certificate, and Cloudflare Tunnel in front of all of it.

It shows up in how I work with other people too. I keep the pipeline green, write down what I find out, and would rather fix the thing that keeps breaking than route around it.

1. 2026–present

   Programmer, IT consultant and developer

   Veng ApS

2. 2024–2026

   Seeking work

   I built most of my own systems in this period: the homelab platform and the Debian host it runs on, ConfigService and TokenForge, published to a private package feed, and the rest of my private services.

3. 2022–2024

   Software developer

   Formpipe Software A/S · Ballerup

   Two years on a product team, split between the product itself and the tooling that shipped it.

   • Co-responsible for one of the products' internal Azure DevOps: build and release pipelines, agents, and whatever broke in them.
   • Developer on that product's deployment tool, the one used to roll the product out at customers.
   • Part of the regular development team and of an improvement team that took on the things slowing everyone else down.

4. 2016–2018

   IT supporter, apprenticeship

   Skolepraktik · Ringsted

   Second-line support and helpdesk during my IT-supporter apprenticeship.

   • Took helpdesk tickets and whatever first line escalated: workstations, accounts, printers and network.
   • Skolepraktik is the school-run track of a Danish apprenticeship, for apprentices without a company placement.

5. 2013–2014

   Service assistant

   Jem & Fix · Sorø

   Retail floor work alongside school — stock, tills and customers.

1. 2019–2022

   Datamatiker (AP degree in computer science)

   Zealand – Sjællands Erhvervsakademi · Roskilde

   Two and a half years of applied computer science. I did the ten-week internship at Formpipe, was hired there after graduating, and finished with 12 — the top mark on the Danish scale.

2. 2018–2019

   HF Enkeltfag

   HF & VUC Klar · Slagelse

   Single-subject upper-secondary courses, taken to qualify for the datamatiker programme.

3. 2015–2018

   IT-supporter

   ZBC Ringsted · Ringsted

   Vocational IT-supporter training, finished with the Svendeprøve — the Danish journeyman's test — and 12 in both parts of it.

One Debian machine at home, a handful of containers, and a tunnel out. I set it up and keep it running myself. No inbound ports are open — everything arrives through Cloudflare.

Visitors

Anyone opening this page, from wherever they are.

Cloudflare edge

DNS, TLS and caching in front of everything. Nothing reaches the host without coming through here.

cloudflared

Dials out to Cloudflare and holds the connection open. The router forwards nothing inward.

This site

The Next.js container serving the page you are reading.

ConfigService

Central configuration. Every other service asks it for its settings on startup.

BaGet

Private NuGet feed. My own packages are published here and my services install from here.

Docker registry

Private image registry. CI pushes images to it and Compose pulls them back down.

MSSQL

The database behind the services, in its own container with a persistent volume.

GitHub Actions runner

Self-hosted runner. It builds the images and deploys them on the same machine.

Nginx Proxy Manager sits beside all of this, holding the wildcard certificate for everything I open over the LAN. It is not a hop on the path above: nothing it serves goes through the tunnel, so none of it is reachable from outside the house.

Six projects I built in my own time because I needed them, not as portfolio pieces — and I run every one of them myself.

The repositories are private: these are personal systems holding my own data and credentials, so there are no links to them. The one open-source project involved is the extension StreamScout is forked from, and that one is credited.

• ConfigService

  One encrypted store for every setting and secret I run on.

  Problem

  Every service carried its own copy of the same settings and kept its own secrets in plain files, so one change meant editing and redeploying several.

  Approach

  An ASP.NET Core API that encrypts values at rest with a master key it is handed at startup and never stores beside the data, per-app keys kept hashed and rotatable, and roles for admin, editor and viewer. An Angular client edits all of it.

  Result

  Every service pulls its configuration in one startup call, and every minute a worker checks the apps that have a health check configured, so I can see which ones are alive.

  Stack

  • ASP.NET Core
  • EF Core
  • MSSQL
  • Angular
  • NuGet

• TokenForge

  Two NuGet packages, so I solve authentication once.

  Problem

  Each new service started from scratch on the same work — issuing tokens, hashing passwords, wiring up policies — written slightly differently every time.

  Approach

  TokenForge.Core issues access and refresh tokens, hashes passwords with BCrypt and ships ready-made authorize policies, plus an API-key header for service-to-service calls. TokenForge.OAuth adds Discord login on the same tokens, checks guild membership and maps Discord roles to app roles.

  Result

  A new service gets working authentication from a package and a handful of options, and a background service can call it with a key instead of a user login.

  Stack

  • ASP.NET Core
  • JWT
  • BCrypt
  • Discord OAuth
  • API keys
  • NuGet

• DiscordEconomy

  An economy and leaderboard system for a Discord server.

  Problem

  A server wanted taking part to count for something, and the bots on offer were rented, closed and hard to build on.

  Approach

  Four C# projects and no frontend: everything runs from slash commands — /balance, /leaderboard, /shop — with the bot reaching the API on its own API key. Voice time counts per session with a daily cap, muted and deafened time left out, and a restart mid-session is picked up again.

  Result

  Coins, XP, voice minutes and messages each have a leaderboard, transfers between members land in the same ledger, nicknames stay in sync, and earn rates come from ConfigService.

  Stack

  • ASP.NET Core
  • Discord.Net
  • EF Core
  • MSSQL
  • Docker

• JobApplicationManager

  Job postings from my inbox, tracked through to a sent application.

  Problem

  Job alert emails pile up faster than I can read them, and the deadline in one is gone the moment the mail scrolls out of sight.

  Approach

  A mail agent holds an IMAP connection open and scrapes each alert as it lands — one parsing profile per sender, Danish dates included — into a pending posting with its deadline. From there it becomes a tracked entry, gets an application PDF generated, and is sent.

  Result

  Postings arrive with their deadlines attached, and the same app carries one through to a sent application, with the Angular client updating live as it moves.

  Stack

  • ASP.NET Core
  • EF Core
  • MSSQL
  • Angular
  • SignalR
  • MailKit
  • QuestPDF

• StreamScout

  A fork of Twitch Lurker that follows NoPixel and Kick.

  Problem

  The upstream extension covered Twitch and YouTube; I wanted Kick instead, and NoPixel GTA V RP streams found by what is actually being played.

  Approach

  Split into four npm workspaces — a shared core, a shared component library, the extension and a Next.js site — with YouTube dropped, Kick added through its public API and NoPixel detection built on top. The site logs in with Twitch or Kick and runs in its own container.

  Result

  One extension and one site show who is live across Twitch and Kick, with tabs for categories, follows and NoPixel.

  Stack

  • TypeScript
  • React
  • Vite
  • Next.js
  • MUI
  • WebExtensions
  • npm workspaces

• WorkSummary

  A year of calendar entries, counted into months.

  Problem

  My work pattern only existed as calendar entries, so counting office days, days at home, sick days and days off per month was something I did by hand.

  Approach

  A small ASP.NET Core API takes a year of calendar events, matches each one on its title and counts them per month into office days, days worked from home, sick days and days off. Each month also carries a flag for whether it has been reported to SKAT.

  Result

  One call answers what a month actually looked like and whether it has been reported yet, instead of me counting entries in a calendar.

  Stack

  • ASP.NET Core
  • EF Core
  • SQLite

No percentages and no bars. The first list is what I reach for without thinking about it; the second is what I can work in when a task calls for it.

I am in Slagelse, Denmark, and open to backend and full-stack .NET work — nearby or remote. Email is the most direct route; LinkedIn and GitHub work too.
