About me

Swedish, based in Palermo since 2024. Working languages English and Swedish; Italian conversational. Open to interim, fractional and project mandates — remote or hybrid, on-site as the mandate requires.

Swedish technology leader with 15+ years taking technical initiatives from intent to production — at Volvo Cars, Polestar, SKF, Mölnlycke and Philip Morris, and as co-founder and CEO of an enterprise-mobility company through to a successful exit. I work in the space between leadership and engineering, where priorities compete and initiatives stall: I bring structure, lead cross-functional delivery and translate technology for the boardroom, vendors and customers. At Volvo Cars I led the team that shipped the world's first industrial Apple Watch app (150 → 900 users in 8 months); at SKF I scaled the innovation team from 3 to 20.

Project, Programme & Change Leadership
Project and programme leader running cross-functional delivery, roadmap and portfolio governance, and stakeholder, vendor and board communication. Agile delivery (user stories, acceptance criteria, epics), coordinated with plan-driven deliveries from other parties. Chaired a 15-member steering committee with full vendor contract and KPI responsibility at Mölnlycke.

IT Service Management
ITIL Intermediate (Service Offerings and Agreements). Built up service management at Mölnlycke and SKF; at Mölnlycke, app and device services were fully integrated in ServiceNow for internal users. Long experience with Atlassian tools (Jira, Confluence), including administration.

Applied AI & Automation
Multi-agent orchestration, LLM integration and prompt engineering, RAG, Model Context Protocol (MCP), LLM observability and evaluation. I built and operate Scarlett, a multi-agent AI system for my own work, and open-sourced a multi-model credibility gate for LLM output (github.com/christoffffer/llm-credibility). Hands-on delivery today is AI-assisted.

Enterprise Mobility & Cloud
Established enterprise mobility management globally at Mölnlycke: devices to 4,000 employees in 32 markets, 36 apps centralised into one portfolio (saving €100K/year). Solutions spanning SAP, Azure and AWS at SKF.

Technical Due Diligence
Selective technical advisory and due diligence, including technical due diligence on an acquisition target.

Independent - Technology & Product
Selective technical advisory and due diligence, including technical due diligence on an acquisition target. Co-founded Italia Property Surveyors and built the working product (customer website and surveyor web application); closed before summer 2026, when the business case proved financially insufficient. Built and operate Scarlett, a multi-agent AI system I run for my own work — multi-provider orchestration, reliability engineering and full observability. Open-sourced a multi-model credibility gate that scores whether AI output is safe to act on (github.com/christoffffer/llm-credibility). Built a custom AI media-generation application for a paying client.
