Summary
Impact-driven, hands-on and human. I design scalable TA processes, bring in modern tools and coach hiring managers — and I still love doing the hands-on recruiting for complex technical and creative roles. Across DICE and GOALS I contributed to shipping 5+ games; at Polestar I hired 100+ tech specialists and leaders; at Tink I helped scale the company from ~60 to 250+ people. Today I run consulting engagements through Birk Recruitment & HR AB.
