Hi there! 👋 I'm Niklas, a passionate software developer currently finishing my BSc in Computer Science at Falmouth University (projected First-Class Honours). I bring 3 years of part-time experience as an embedded systems developer at Scheidt&Bachmann, coupled with hands-on UI/frontend development experience as a freelancer creating Biggs&Bognar.

I thrive on building scalable, high-performance web applications (React, Next.js, TypeScript, CSS) and robust backend solutions (Node.js, PostgreSQL, AWS). I have a strong interest in the financial services sector and enjoy tackling complex problems.

Beyond coding, I follow programming news and economic trends, and enjoy running, cricket, and sports to maintain focus and energy.

I am available to start in June 2025 and am actively seeking graduate Software Developer opportunities in the UK.
