Wasa Kredit AB

Lead Developer 2012-03 2013-11

About the Role

I worked as a lead developer at Wasa Kredit, focusing on improving code quality, development practices, and collaboration across teams.

What I Worked On

Reducing Complexity

I refactored key parts of the codebase to make the system easier to understand, maintain, and extend. This reduced unnecessary complexity and improved long‑term stability.

Executable Specifications

I introduced living documentation through executable specifications. This made requirements unambiguous, testable, and always up to date, improving both communication and quality.

More Collaborative, Agile Development

I helped guide the teams toward a more agile way of working, with product owners, analysts, testers, and developers collaborating throughout the entire development cycle instead of handing work off in stages.

Reflection

This role was about making development smoother and more predictable — simplifying the codebase, clarifying requirements, and improving how teams worked together.
