[Who is Isak]
I am 29, turning 30 this December. I live in a small community outside of Skövde called Timmersdala, I have a house that I never seem to get done renovating and and I just got married.
[What background do you have]
I did 3 years at a Folk high school studying computer and networking to try to get my grades up to qualify for university courses. Afterwards I got in to the network and systems administration program at Skövde university where I only completed one year before I got a job as a Service desk Technician and decided to work full-time.
I was given a lot of freedom to take on more difficult tasks and responsibilities which allowed me to grow and gain experience very quickly.
A few years and with some certifications under my belt, I left the service desk to become a cloud consultant helping clients migrate their workloads and leverage the capabilities of the cloud.
In my latest role before joining Onevinn I was mainly focusing on planning and performing transition projects for newly acquired companies where we replaced the entire IT infrastructure of the acquired company to integrate them in the existing structure of the acquiring company.
[What is your passion]
You would probably expect me to answer that I’m passionate about technology, but the truth is quite the opposite.
While I do enjoy working with technology my passion is more towards helping people and solving problems rather than the technology itself, I personally prefer being offline and working with my hands.
[What do you do in your spare time]
I enjoy going to the gym, cooking, thrift shopping, making or repairing things, and volunteering at my local church.
This summer was spent repairing a Toyota Prius that had been abandoned for 5 years and redoing my lawn.
[What will you do at Onevinn]
I will be a part of the Cloud Security team and I hope to be able to contribute to the Enterprise Scale platform and whatever else might be thrown my way.
[Why Onevinn]
What sold me on Onevinn was how overwhelmingly positive my former colleagues talked about their experiences working here.
I also like not being the most knowledgeable person in the room and joining Onevinn seemed like a surefire way of ensuring I would have people around me to learn from.
