    Digital product developer at Urban Sharing
    Oslo and remote

    Employed as one of the first developers of a startup, I got the chance of shaping a product from the beginning. Being both a software and hardware supplier to Oslo City Bike and Trondheim City Bike, we worked on creating a product that could scale and be delivered to other cities. When I left we had launched schemes in Bergen, Edinburgh, Verona and Milano.

    I worked on both internally and public facing solutions, including a backoffice system that was used by both customer service, mechanics, rebalancing crew on the street and various stakeholders in the daily operations.

    This also included creating a GraphQL API used in the public facing websites and apps. The websites was a multi tenant solution used to explain the city bike schema to users, sell products and provide realtime and historical data of the city bike usage.

    As a side project, I got to implement the website for Urban Sharing, including a Sanity CMS backend and a another brilliant identity designed by Heydays.
