Hello, and welcome to my blog. My name is Henrik Warne. I am a software developer in Stockholm, Sweden. I have been programming professionally for more than 20 years, and I still love to code!
Currently, I am a developer at Symsoft , where I am working on the messaging part of the system. In the past, I have developed software for mobile switching systems for Ericsson (in Montreal, Melbourne and Stockholm), and I have worked at a small start-up, developing an embedded system for VoIP. I have mostly been a developer, but I have also worked a couple of years as a system tester and as a support engineer. I have coded professionally in Java, C++, Ruby, C, PLEX (proprietary language from Ericsson) and ASA (Ericsson assembler).
I studied Computer Science and Engineering at Chalmers, and spent one year at Imperial College in London (studying Communication and Signal Processing).
I like to work with all parts of software development, from specification and design, to implementation, test and support (I even enjoy bug-fixing). I prefer to work in small teams of highly skilled developers – I keep seeing how much they can get done.
I also love to read – about software development (a favorite is Code Complete), personal development (e.g. How to Win Friends and Influence People), and thrillers.
I play soccer and innebandy (floorball). I have coached my daughter’s innebandy team, and I am coaching my son’s soccer and innebandy teams.
My taste in music is quite varied, favorites include synth and classic rock.
Some things that make me laugh: The Onion, Alan Partridge, The Young Ones, Dave Barry.
