Hi there,
I’m working at F5 Inc. as Senior Principal Software Engineer. F5 acquired my SaaS pen-testing startup Heyhack in Feb 2024. I co-founded Heyhack in Jan 2022.
Previously, I’ve founded the database company Columno and 2600 Security that helps companies with technical IT security. I have a PhD in Computer Science from Aarhus University. I worked in the Data-Intensive Systems group/MADALGO primarily with Big Data algorithms. More specifically, scalable textual indexing and query processing of objects in space and time. I’ve been part-time lecturer at Aarhus University, Denmark since 2017. From Sept 2019 I spend three months as Visiting Professor at Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology, China. I visited the Information and Data Management group at UCLA, Los Angeles for half a year in 2013/2014.

I did my MSc in Computer Science at Aalborg University where I graduated in summer 2009. The same summer I started working as software developer at Trifork where I spend the next year. I left Trifork to start my own company Hackavoid that performs automated vulnerability scanning of web-sites. It was fully acquired by Klean A/S in Feb. 2014. As a hobby-project I created Denmark’s largest database for footrace results, TimeTri.be, with a friend of mine. We sold the company in 2012. After I finished my PhD in 2014 I spend three years as partner and Software Engineer at TrustSkills.

Here is a brief overview of IT jobs I’ve had.

Besides computers, I enjoy running, mountain biking, climbing and wild nature.
